The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the W side of the Rosslare sand-spit and on the W side of a N-S road. There is no visible evidence of an enclosure or of burial associated with St. Broagh’s church (WX043-002001-), but archaeological testing (06E0099) recovered nine burials from the graveyard within a cottage where the S wall of the church was also identified (Ó Drisceoil 2009).
