National Monument in state guardianship No. 417. Situated on a low rise above a steep E-facing slope. A simple rectangular church (dims. 12.15m x 7.8m) with well-built walls of sandstone, granite and shale blocks of various sizes, substantially restored (H1.5-4.5m). The E gable has antae but the W end of the church appears to have been extended and the antae removed. The S wall has a flat lintelled doorway, and there is a small round-arched window towards the E end.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
