The National Monuments Service's description

This rectangular graveyard (c. 58m NE-SW; c. 51m NW-SE) is associated with a medieval church (GA105-056001-). It is enclosed by a stone wall and access is gained at the SE corner. On inspection only one graveslab of possible 18th-century date was noted, beside the S wall of the church, all the rest all dated to the 19th century.
