The National Monuments Service's description

Located immediately S of public road and N of Gerald Griffins GAA club. Annotated‘ Ardnakisha Burial Ground’ on the 1840 OS 6-inch map where it is located to the S of the public road. However the extent or precise location of the burial ground is not depicted on this map. The burial ground is not depicted on the 1897 0S 25-inch map which shows a disused quarry in the area of the burial ground. Tree-covered area to the S of the quarry visible on Google Earth orthoimages may be the site of this burial ground.
