The National Monuments Service's description
The church of Dysart (RO047-060001-) is within an oval ecclesiastical enclosure (max. dims c. 240m ENE-WSW; c. 150m NNW-SSE) defined by what is probably an earthen bank SW-NNW and a stone wall N-SE, which are visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP: BDO 29, 30) from the 1970s, but this perimeter is now reduced to a stone spread NNW-ENE.
