The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a broad NE-facing shoulder of a S-N spur of Kilwatermoy Mountain. The parish church of Kilwatermoy (WA033-004003-) is within a small rectangular graveyard (WA033-004002-) (dims. c. 50m N-S; c. 50m E-W) defined by masonry walls at N and E, a road wall at S and a field bank at W. A souterrain site (WA033-004004-) is N of the present graveyard, but probably within the bounds of a larger oval ecclesiastical enclosure (WA033-004001-) defined by a field bank and townland boundary with Churchquater. (Power 1898a, 213-14)
