The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a marked S-facing slope overlooking a valley. A quadrangular graveyard (L 45m WNW-ESE, Wth at E 40m; Wth at W 30m) with church (WI030-007----) towards E end. Defined by a mostly collapsed earth and stone bank (Wth 2m) with external drystone facing, the W wall is largely intact. There is a faint outer ditch (Wth 1.80m) on the N and E sides and an entrance gate at the SW. There are several mid-18th-century graveslabs in the church.
