The National Monuments Service's description
On top of a hill in undulating terrain with pasture fields to the E and S and a road runs along the N and W boundary wall. The church was located in the E quadrant of a roughly rectangular graveyard (TS059-032001-). According to the OS letters in 1840 the ‘site of the original Church is occupied by a modern Protestant one still in use’ (O’Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 95 (256)). The C of I church is no longer visible above ground. There are three limestone architectural fragments in the graveyard, two jambs and a mullion and a late medieval graveslab (TS059-032002-) lying in the E quadrant of the graveyard.
