What is recorded here

This monument was inspected in 1977 and described as a sub-rectangular shaped graveyard (dims. c. 57m N-S; 52m E-W) enclosed by a fairly modern stone wall. The graveyard is entered through a gateway in the S wall of the graveyard. The remains of a medieval church (WM033-031----) stand in the NE quadrant of the graveyard. There are a small number of memorials visible to the S of the church some of which are 18th century in date and also some fragments of dressed stone taken from the church have been set into the graveyard possibly as burial markers. No burials are visible to the W, N and E of the church.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record WM033-031001
