The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight W-facing slope with stream flowing NW-SE c. 120m to the SW along the valley floor. According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 2, 331), the 'church of Tifeaghna was removed generations ago, and not a stone of it remains over another'. There is no visible trace at ground level of a church within the graveyard (KK009-041002-).
