The National Monuments Service's description
The medieval parish church of Moylagh (ME015-032----) is located on a N-S ridge within a D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 50m NW-SE at SW to c. 70m NW-SE at NE; c. 35m NE-SW) defined by drystone walls. The head of a disc-headed cross (ME015-032002-) that was within the graveyard (SMR file 1969) is missing. The graveslab of Edmond Maolagh (ME015-032003-) can no longer be identified, but that erected by Theobalt Cut and his wife Rose Moore (ME015-032004-) is within the church.
