What is recorded here

Located within an ecclesiastical enclosure (CL018-024001-). Described as ‘the site of an old Church and burying ground called Cill-Tonachta’ by O’ Donovan (Comber 1997, 90). This roughly rectangular graveyard (31.5m E-W; 20.5m N-S) is defined by a drystone wall (H 1m). Access is gained through a gateway towards the S end of the W wall. The fragmentary remains of the foundations of the E and S walls of a church (CL018-024002-) are centrally located within it. A number of graves are marked by uninscribed upright stones but most are modern 19th and 20th-century graves. Some architectural fragments from the church, including a corbel stone, a window sill stone, a jambstone and dressed stone, are visible within it (Large 2010, 152-4).
