The National Monuments Service's description

Located in the village of Kill. The original RC church of Kill is depicted as a cruciform structure. Only the porch (ext. dims. 7.25m N-S; 5.25m E-W) that would have been at the E end of the building survives in the graveyard. A doorway in the N wall led into the porch, and two doorways in the W wall led from the porch to the body of the church. There is a bellfry over the E wall of the porch.
