The National Monuments Service's description

On a slight slope down to the N and E in a low-lying landscape. The enclosure (RO044-054001-) around the church (RO044-054002-) is truncated at N by a WNW-ESE roadway (surviving L 100m; Wth 2.2m) defined by two earth and stone banks (Wth 2.3-2.5m; int. H 0.4-0.55m; ext. H 0.65-0.75m) and outer silted drains (Wth of base 0.5-0.8m; D 0.25-0.5m). This road turns SW (L 21m) just W of the enclosure and is cut by at E by a bank of the ecclesiastical enclosure (RO044-054005-).
