The National Monuments Service's description
On a gradual S-facing slope in undulating terrain, under pasture. There is no visible trace of the church above ground. The church is named on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map as 'site of Kiltankin Church', with a small, roughly oval dashed area indicating the known extent of the graveyard (TS086-015001-). A slight, roughly circular rise (diam. c. 18m) near the NW corner of the field may be the location of the church, currently surmounted by a concrete cattle trough.
