The National Monuments Service's description
The small, oratory-like, building (DU015-031002-) is eccentrically located in a circular enclosure (diam. c. 28m) which is defined by a flat-topped bank (Wth 6m, H 0.6m) best preserved to the east of the church. The 1937 edition OS 6-inch map shows a curved boundary to the west of the church which is probably a continuation of this ecclesiastical enclosure.
