The National Monuments Service's description

Situated at the bottom of a S-facing slope of Slievecoiltia Hill and at the headwaters of a small N-S stream. The church (WX039-009001-) and graveyard (WX039-009003-) are within a large enclosure (int. dims. 94m E-W; 86m N-S) defined by slight traces of a fosse (Wth c. 13m) NNW-E and a scarp SE-SW. The site of Crone Well (WX039-010----) is just outside the enclosure at SW.
