The National Monuments Service's description

The first Roman Catholic church of St. Mary is within a small D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 50-55m N-S; c. 20-25m E-W) defined by masonry walls. The church takes up most of the available space and there are a few nineteenth and twentieth century headstones. This is also the site of the medieval parish church of Cloone (LE033-008004-), and the transom of the high cross (LE033-008003-) is displayed here.
