The National Monuments Service's description

In a reclaimed field. It is likely that there was a graveyard associated with the medieval church (KK024-083001-) of Kilbline, however, no graveyard is indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map or on the later revision of this map (1899-1902).
When describing the medieval church, Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 485) mentions, ‘There is no trace of graveyard or graves’.
