In flat grassland to E of Ballaghdacker Lough; it is situated in a small triangular graveyard defined by an earthen bank. All that survives are the wall foundations of a very poorly preserved rectangular church (WNW-ESE; L 16.25m, Wth 6.8m). No architectural features are visible.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
