The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on a low natural rise in slightly undulating countryside. The present remains consist of a long rectangular church (TN026-061001) with a later S transept added to the E end of the S wall of the church. There is a small priest's room in the form of a small tower at the W end of the church with a destroyed doorway in the centre of the E wall of the tower. The church has a two-centred doorway at the W end of the N wall with a partially destroyed window at the centre of the N wall and later cusped windows at the E end of the N and S walls. There is a large rectangular graveyard with eighteenth and nineteenth-century-headstones. Earthworks, indicative of a possible field system (TN026-061002), were identifed on an aerial photograph (CUCAP, AYO 32) taken in 1969, to the N, NE and E of the church.
