The National Monuments Service's description

On N-facing slope in area of scrub and woodland. No visible trace survives; the site is marked simply as 'Graveyard' on 1st ed. of OS 6-inch map but this probably refers to the associated CBG (GA081-007002-). All that appears in 3rd ed. (1947) is a cross symbol alongside the site name. Possibly the site of a 19th-C R.C. chapel.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
