The National Monuments Service's description
The remains of an irregular shaped low earthen bank around the church (LH021-018001-) was visible when inspected by ASI in 1966 (ASI field note 28 June 1966). The SE segment was faced with stone. This bank may have been the remnants of an early enclosure, but has since been levelled.
