What is recorded here

A roughly rectangular graveyard built on a rock outcrop. This rock has been quarried along the exterior of the graveyard wall to create a steep precipice around the north and east side of the site. It encloses the remains of an 18th century church on the site of the medieval parish church (DU014-009001-). The graveyard contains 18th-20th century gravestones, undecorated markers and two vaults. Previously surveyed (Egan 1991).

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record DU014-009002
