The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on high ground on top of a hillock which slopes SE down to the main graveyard. The church (TN040-004) was formerly located in the NW corner of the graveyard but the area is now occupied by burials and headstones, the earliest dated 1700. It was marked as Templeougher (site of) on the 1903 ed. OS 6-inch map. There are no architectural fragments visible in graveyard which has been extended southward. There are at least two eighteenth-century headstones (dated 1734 and 1761) in the NE quadrant, otherwise the headstones date to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
