Situated in a raised position within a walled graveyard off the coast road between Skerries and Loughshinny Village. This is a plain, oblong building aligned E-W, with both gables extant (L 13.80m, W 4.60m). Built of coursed limestone masonry. There is a single bellcote covered in ivy over west gable. Entered through opposed pointed arch openings towards western end of nave. The east window has traces of 15th century tracery and an external hood moulding. There is a plain window in the south wall of nave with jambs of tufa (Healy 1975, 20). According to the structural survey there is evidence of a small area of wash out of mortar at the base of the north wall. There is extensive cracking on the west gable wall which is probably due to subsidence caused by the proximity of graves (Nolan 2011).
