The National Monuments Service's description
Marked as a small triangular area (dims. c. 35m E-W; c. 30m N-S) described as 'site of graveyard' on 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on a slight bluff overlooking a small NW-SE stream c. 50m to the S and only c. 270m from the sea, which is to the E. An abandoned farmhouse is now partly on the overgrown location and there is no evidence of burial. The site of Toberpatrick Well (WX007-005----) is c. 70m to the SE.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
