The National Monuments Service's description
On a low E-W pasture ridge. A large roughly rectangular area (c. 62m E-W; c. 45m N-S) is enclosed by a mortared stone wall and rises towards the centre where a ruined church (KD032-013----) stands. The site of a castle (KD032-014---- ) lies just to the E of the graveyard. Legible grave markers date from the 19th-century.
