The National Monuments Service's description
A sub-rectangular shaped graveyard (dims. 64m ENE-WNW x 92m WNW- ESE) enclosed by a stone wall with entrance gates to ESE and second smaller gate to E which was presumably a route to Dunganstown House (WI031-023----). Price (1967, 441) noted that 'a new church was built near Dunganstown House in the latter part of the seventeenth century (? c. 1670)'. There are a number of early 18th century graveslabs in-situ in the W half of the graveyard and some which have recently been moved to their present location against the N wall of the graveyard.
