The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a S-facing slope down to the N bank of a small SW-NE stream and on the W side of a minor N-S road. The Roman Catholic church (LE025-104001-) that was derelict by 1838 (Gallogly 1993-4, 432) and is now reduced to a fragment of one wall is within a rectangular walled graveyard (dims 36mN-S; 26m E-W) with an entrance gate between large masonry piers at N. The few headstones date from c. 1900 to c. 1987.
