Situated on the summit of a drumlin hill within an approximately square graveyard containing modern grave-markers. Davies (1948, 77) noted that 'under Charles I it was recommended that the church be moved to Gortnakesh, as more convenient to the manor-house of Monyehall (CV025-098----) but it does not seem that this was done.' Not visible at ground level.
