The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the E end of an E-W ridge with a graveyard positioned partly on top of the ridge and continuing downslope to the base. A holy well (TN040-012003) lies to the SE. A roughly square-shaped graveyard surrounded by a stone wall. It is sparsely populated with nineteenth and twentieth-century headstones and some rough stone markers. There are no pre-nineteenth-century headstones visible and there are no architectural fragments in the graveyard or in the wall, though this is largely obscured by ivy. The church (TN040-012001) was presumably situated on level ground in the NW quadrant of the graveyard at the top of the ridge.
