The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a low rise of ground in undulating countryside with a nearby river ravine to the S. The site is listed in the ecclesiastical taxation of the Diocese of Cashel in 1302 where it is referred to as the 'Chapel of Sidan', (CDI, vol. 5, 283). The poorly preserved remains of a rectangular church (TN035-078) constructed with roughly coursed limestone rubble. The jambstones of the destroyed doorway are reused as an entrance gateway to the graveyard which contains nineteenth and twentieth-century headstones. The OS Letters describe the church with only the N wall destroyed and a twin-light limestone window in the now demolished E gable (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 2, 186-7).
