The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the N crest of the Suir escarpment. The parish church of Fenoagh is within a circular graveyard (int. diam. 42.7m N-S; 40.7m E-W) defined by a stone-faced, earth and stone bank with a hedge. Blackett (1860-61) recorded a possible ogham stone (WA003-034004-) at this site which has since disappeared. Burial dates from the the late 18th to the mid 19th century, but there is a headstone (WA003-034005-) to James Bryan dated 1701.
