The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the NW side of a broad NE-SW ridge. The site of the parish church of Doonooney (WX031-029001-) is within a slightly dished oval area (dims. 60m N-S; 38m E-W) defined by a slight scarp, with traces of an external fosse (Wth 12m; D 0.2m) ENE SE. There is no evidence of the church or of burial apart from a fragment of one headstone with no inscription that is built into a field bank. The motte site (WX031-028----) is c. 100m to the NW.
