The National Monuments Service's description
On a S-facing slope overlooking the valley of the Roughty River. A roughly rectangular area (c. 100m E-W; c. 60m N-S) bounded by a recently constructed stone wall (T 0.55m; H 1.5m). The earliest headstones noted date to the mid-19th century. One vaulted tomb, built of random rubble, lies immediately to the E of the Church of Ireland church (KE094-070----) which is in the W half of the graveyard. The graveyard is in occasional use. The graveyard and church grounds have recently been landscaped.
