What is recorded here

Located on a slight E-W rise, which is at the N edge of a plateau, and it is surrounded by the field system (ME042-011----). The W gable of the church (ME042-012----) survives at the W edge of a subrectangular graveyard (dims c. 37m E-W; c. 25-30m N-S) defined by masonry walls. The few headstones are clustered around the W edge of the graveyard and date from c. 1800 to c. 1900. Archaeological testing (05E0312) by C. Duffy c. 100m to the NE produced no related material (excavations.ie 2005:1140).

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record ME042-012001
