Adjacent to Toomullin church (CL008-072001-) on the N bank of the Aille River, in a flat E-W valley in pasture with steep hillsides to the N and S and also overlooked by higher ground to the E. According to Spellissy (1987, 66) this graveyard was bulldozed in 1982. The only trace is a low scarp around the N half of the church exterior, which may be material from the graveyard piled against the church wall. A flagstone with a latin inscription and the letters ‘C.C.’, believed to be the initials of Conor MacClancy who died in 1625 is also believed to have been located here (Spellissy 1983, 9). There is a holy well (CL008-072003-) c. 45m to the ESE of the church. 1983 A Doolin walk: from Tuath Clae Church to Doonagore Castle. The Other Clare 7, 8-13.
