In rough grazing land, on an E-W ridge near the N shore of Bantry Bay. A circular area (diam. 13m), largely covered by ferns, enclosed by a low earthen bank (Wth 1.2m; H 0.25m) from which occasional stones protrude. A raised circular area (diam. 4m; H 0.15m) in the centre of the interior contains low uninscribed grave-markers. The field in which the burial ground is located is known locally as 'Páirc na Cille' and the enclosed area is known as a 'cillíneach' or children's burial ground.
