The site measures 50 yards by 35, and is in the centre of a field. Grass-covered mounds on the north side indicate the site of church. Two white thorn trees grow on the church-site.' No visible surface trace. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000).
