Along the heavily overgrown S edge of an ecclesiastical enclosure (CL007-003001-), on the S crest of a low E–W ridge in improved pasture. Indicated and named ‘Cushacorra Grave Yd.’ on the 1842 ed. of the OS 6-inch maps and ‘Cushacorra Grave Yd (Children’s Burial Gd.)’ on the 1915 ed.
The burial ground (11.5m N–S; 6.3m E–W) is defined at E by a church (CL007-003004-) and along the S by a low drystone wall (Wth 0.5m; H 0.5m), but it has no obvious enclosing element to W or N. Burials are mostly marked by small plain stones (H 0.2m; L 0.3m; Wth 0.15m) with a few taller and longer markers (H 0.4–0.6m; L 0.4–0.5m; Wth 0.08–0.12m). The markers run in N–S rows and average 0.8m apart. The collapsed remains of another building (CL007-003002-) lie just to the NW and a holy well (CL007-002----) lies c. 60m to the WNW.
