The National Monuments Service's description
On level pasture c. 35m ENE of Lackagh Castle (KD022-017----), and c. 200m E of a motte (KD022-016----). Contains a modern church on the site of a possible older, medieval church (KD022-018----) A roughly rectangular area (L c. 80m; Wth c. 60m) is enclosed by a stone wall. While the legible grave markers are modern, an architectural fragment reused as a burial marker may have come from the older church; a round window head (Wth 0.5m; H 0.35m; T 0.18m); and a window transom (L 0.65m; Wth 0.2m; H 0.2m) also reused as a grave marker may be from Lackagh Castle.
