What is recorded here

On a S-facing gentle slope, with River Suir c. 200m to S, in undulating pasture. The church (TS083-012----) is on the S side of a square-shaped graveyard (dims. 65m N-S; 78m E-W) which is enclosed by a stone wall. A graveslab SW of the medieval church dates to 1727 and one to the W dates to 1786. There are 18th and 19th-century gravestones in the interior, the earliest dating to 1753 or 1755. Collapsed stone and concrete edging immediately E of E gable probably indicates a 19th-century burial plot. Both rubble/collapsed masonry and burial plot are heavily overgrown with vegetation.
