The National Monuments Service's description

Centrally located within a graveyard (LF010-017001-). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded wall-footings (L c. 4m; wall T 0.9m) aligned E-W and suggested the possibility that they might be the last vestiges of the side-wall of a church. Not visible at ground level. According to the landowner, there is no tradition of a church here (ibid.).
