The National Monuments Service's description

In gently undulating grassland to the NE of Kiltullagh village. This rectilinear graveyard (c. 90m NE-SW; c. 86m NW-SE) is enclosed by a modern stone wall. Access is gained via a gateway at S. Most of the headstones date from the 18th to the 20th centuries but four medieval graveslabs (GA097-114003- to GA097-114006-) are also visible. The remains of a church (GA097-114----) occupy its S end and a font (GA097-114002-) in its SW sector probably came from the church.
