The National Monuments Service's description
Located at the S end of a N-S spur between the estuary of the NE-SW Kilmacleague Pill to the E and the reclaimed lands of the Tramore Back Strand to the W. The parish church of Kilmacleague (WA027-019001-) survives as foundations, but there is no evidence of a graveyard. There are slight earthwork banks N of the church covering c. 1.5 ha. which were mentioned by Power (1890-91, 477-8) and are visible on aerial photographs (ACAP V165/ 58-9), but which form no discernible pattern.
Power, Rev. P. (1890-91) The ancient ruined churches of Co. Warterford. JRSAI 20-21, 475-82.
