The National Monuments Service's description
There are plain limestone grave-markers within the church (LE010-036001-) but there is no evidence of burial in the overgrown rectangular field (dims 38m N-S; 18m E-W) attached to the N, which may have served as a graveyard. There is a record of a headstone commemorating the Parke family and dated 1677 (FitzGerald 1910-12c) which was within the church but which cannot now be identified.
