The National Monuments Service's description
The church (RO011-128001-) was probably a chapel-of-ease to Kilmore parish church (RO018-001002-). It is situated on a shelf of a gentle N-facing slope. A rectangular enclosure (dims c. 25m E-W; c. 20m N-S) depicted to the SW of the church on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map may have been a graveyard, as there was said to have been a cemetery attached (Lewis 1837, vol. 2, 187).
