The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a shelf with slightly higher ground to the N. The church (RO054-011001-) and adjacent rectangular building (RO054-011002-) are within a D-shaped grass and scrub-covered enclosure (dims c. 40m N-S; c. 20m E-W) defined by relict field banks extending N (L c. 10m), and S (L c. 60m) from the structures together with a bank curving N-E, and an E-W bank, but this is probably just one quadrant of a larger enclosure. A house (RO054-011004-) is c. 20m E of the church, and outside the enclosure.
