The National Monuments Service's description
Associated with a medieval church (LF016-015001-), which is located in its N half. This circular graveyard (diam. 35m), which is densely overgrown with scrub, is enclosed by a 19th-century stone wall. It is no longer in use. Access is via a wrought-iron gate and stile. Memorials date from the 18th to the 20th centuries. A modern rectangular graveyard, enclosed by a concrete wall, adjoins it to the S (Lennon 2005).
