The National Monuments Service's description
On a gentle S-facing slope. The interior of ecclesiastical enclosure (RO054-024003-) at Moore church (RO054-024001-) has a number of radial banks (Wth 4m; H 0.4m-0.6m), but the graveyard is a D-shaped area (dims c. 100m E-W; c. 40m N-S) confined to the area N of a WNW-ESE road which bisects the enclosure.
