The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gentle W-facing slope. A small rectangular graveyard (int. dims 41.5m E-W; 33.5m N-S) defined by an earthen bank with an outer stone facing on all sides except the E is W of the walls of a Church of Ireland church in its own graveyard. It is the site of the parish church of Kilgefin (RO036-012001-), of which there is little evidence.
See the attached view of the old graveyard looking W.
