The National Monuments Service's description
Templecolman church ruins (LI039-006001-) forms NW boundary of sub-rectangular shaped graveyard (approx. dims. 21m N-S x 33m E-W) enclosed by a 19th century stone wall. The enclosing feature of the burial ground is depicted as a small circular-shaped enclosure possibly defined by an earthen bank on the first ed. OS 6-inch map. The curving section of the boundary wall at SE may be following line of earlier enclosing graveyard boundary.
