The National Monuments Service's description
Associated with the medieval church (GA096-110----), which occupied its NE end, this irregularly shaped graveyard (c. 60m E-W; c. 30m N-S) is enclosed by a stone-built wall. Access is via a gateway at SW. A disused modern church (GA096-110002-) that was subsequently converted into a cow byre stands in its SE section. No early grave-markers were noted on inspection, all the visible headstones were modern.
