The National Monuments Service's description
In grassland, 370m NE of Dunnaman Castle (LI030-012----). A roughly rectangular-shaped graveyard (c. 37m N-S x 44m E-W) covered in scrub vegetation making examination impossible that is enclosed by a post-medieval stone wall with medieval nave and chancel church ruins (LI021-018001-) in S quadrant. Entrance gate at N end of W wall with stone stile in centre of S wall of graveyard. Section of graveyard wall collapsed in centre of the W wall. Earthworks visible on Digital Globe aerial photographs in field immediately to N, E and S appear to represent the remains of an earlier ecclesiastical enclosure (LI021-081004-).
