Church situated at NW corner of a subrectangular graveyard. Rectangular building of stone and mortar construction (dims. 16m E-W; 7m N-S). Features include a collapsed doorway in W wall, an intact doorway in S wall and one window in the N, E and S walls respectively. Some gravestones and trees within the church. Davies (1948, 80) recorded that the church was erected in the 18th century and was abandoned in 1834. He noted the local tradition that the original Castlerahan church stood '50 yds. to the east' of the present church (CV038-008003-). (CUCAP AYS 34, AYS 35, AYS 36)
