The National Monuments Service's description
On a level landscape. The church (RO053-005001-) is at the NW corner of the private D-shaped burial ground of the Naughton family (dims c. 25m NNE-SSW; c. 25m WNW-ESE) defined by iron railings with the straight side at N. The Naughton mausoleum, which was built in 1797, is just S of the church. The graveyard is within the enclosure (RO053-005003-). (Egan 1998)
