The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in a gentle SE-facing slope overlooking rolling pasture. The site is an irregularly shaped area enclosed by a mortared stone wall (H c.1m). The church (LI013-052001-), orientated E-W is located in the N half of the graveyard on an embankment area, oval in plan, and orientated NE by SW. The wall to the N roughly respects the line of the embankment, while the other walls enclose an area greater than that of the embankment. The graveyard is still in use.
