The National Monuments Service's description
Immediately E of a public road, c. 50m N of Killaloe Bridge. A rectangular graveyard (dims. 20m N-S; 42m E-W) enclosed by a stone wall, with a stile and, c. 2m to the N, a wrought-iron double-leaf vehicular gate between square-plan stone piers on the roadside. The interior is raised by c. 1.5m above the surrounding ground level. The associated medieval church (KK022-018005-) is not visible at ground level. There are two medieval graveslabs (KK022-018002-; KK022-018004-) in the graveyard which is quite densely populated with 18th,19th and 20th-century headstones.
