The National Monuments Service's description

There is no evidence of burial at the church site (RO010-062001-), although a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 30m E-W; c. 30m N-S), of which nothing is now visible, is marked on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and human bones and copper ornaments were found there c. 1860 (OS Name Book).
