The National Monuments Service's description
Associated with a church (GA108-089----) which occupies its N end. This rectangular graveyard (50m N-S; 40m E-W) is enclosed by a modern stone wall with access points at N and S. The interior is extensively overgrown and barely accessible. Graveslabs are concentrated around the church; most are broken and are not in situ. The earliest noted dates to 1722, the rest are of 19th-century date.
