The National Monuments Service's description

On level ground c. 130m from the E shore of Kilglass Lough. Rectangular graveyard (dims. 50m E-W; 40m N-S) defined by masonry walls with an entrance gate and stile on the W wall from a public road. It is probably the site of Kilglass parish church (RO024-005002-). Headstones date from c. 1855 to the present and the graveyard is now extended to the S (dim. c. 100m N-S). Toberbarry holy well (RO023-048----) is close to the lakeshore c. 600m to the NNW.
