What is recorded here

Within the disused graveyard in County Dublin, a plain rectangular church survives with its east gable and side walls still standing. Rough conglomerate and limestone blocks rise three metres high, marking a small worship space where people once gathered before ruin and vegetation reclaimed it. The splayed windows and south door rebate remain visible through the overgrowth, preserving the shape of a building that no longer needs a roof to be remembered.
Within the graveyard is a plain rectangular building with the E gable and side walls still standing (Wth 5.40m, L 8.75m, max. H 3.50m). It is roughly built of blocks of conglomerate and limestone. It has splayed, single light windows in the E gable and E end of S wall. Entrance with door rebate survives on the S side (Walsh 1888, 239- 40; Moylan 1961, 23; Healy 1975, 25). Extremely overgrown.
