The National Monuments Service's description

Situated on the S side of a public road on level ground in gently undulating terrain. The graveyard (dims. c. 20m N-S; c. 50m E-W) contains a small number of late eighteenth-century headstones to the SW of the centrally placed church (WI042-003001-). It is within a roughly semicircular ecclesiastical enclosure (WI042-003003-).

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.
