The National Monuments Service's description
On a slight rise in an undulating landscape. The parish church of Taghmaconnell (RO051-053001-) is within a subrectangular graveyard (dims c. 50m N-S; c. 30-35m E-W) defined by masonry walls. The graveyard extends mostly to the N of the church where there are numerous grave-markers, but the walls post-date the house (Ro051-053010-), which is outside the graveyard at SE.
See the attached view looking SW towards the church.
