What is recorded here
Situated in the SE centre of an ecclesiastical enclosure (CL010-038001-). Indicated on the 1842 and 1920 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. A subrectangular graveyard (41m ENE-WSW; 19.5m NNW-SSE) defined by a mortared stone wall, with an entrance at the S. A small carved stone head (CL010-038005-) was found in a disturbed section of the graveyard wall (Ní Ghabhláin 1988). A church (CL010-038002-) lies in the NW corner of the graveyard. The graves appear to date mostly to the 19th century (some more modern) and are marked by headstones, walled graves, rough markers and slabs. There are also several architectural fragments in the graveyard, as well as one weathered slab with a hollow just to the E of the church. Reference:
