The National Monuments Service's description

Situated at the bottom of a valley on a S facing slope overlooking the N bank of the County Brook. Ecclesiastical enclosure (40m N-S x 72m SW-NE) associated with a church (DU028-002002-) two graveslabs (DU028-002006-, DU028-002005-) and a holy well (DU028-002003-). The church is noted as being enclosed until the turn of the century when it was referred to as a cashel (Anon 1900, 187).
