The National Monuments Service's description
Associated with a church (GA114-097001-), which occupies its N end, this irregularly shaped graveyard (c. c. 49m NW-SE; 40m NE-SW) is enclosed by a boulder-built stone wall. Access is via a gateway at SSW. Most of the inscribed headstones date to the 18th and 19th centuries but numerous graves are marked by plain block headstones. Close to the SE corner of the church one grave is marked by a cut-stone mullion fragment from a window from the church.
