The National Monuments Service's description

Located in the valley of a small N-S stream, which is c. 20m to the W. The tower of the fortified parish church of Kilmannan (WX042-021001-) is within a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 50m E-W; c. 30m N-S) defined by masonry walls. Two small crosses (WX042-021004-; WX042-021005-) in a green stone are in the graveyard just S of the church tower as reported by Catherine McLoughlin (2020). The bullaun stone (WX042-021002-) is in a field c. 40m to the SW on the other side of an ENE-WSW public road. Archaeological testing (16E0387) c. 5-40m E of the E wall of the graveyard N-E failed to produce any related material. (McLoughlin 2016)
