The National Monuments Service's description
A sub-rectangular graveyard (dims. c. 35m N-S; c. 40m E-W, narrowing to the S to c. 30m) enclosed by a stone wall. The medieval church (KK028-013001-), orientated E-W, is located roughly centrally within the graveyard, with a residential tower (KK028-013002-) immediately N of the chancel. Most of the updating headstones are located S of the church. The graveyard is accessed via a laneway from the public road c. 70m to the N.
