The church is located on the Marino Avenue West, leading E off Killiney Hill road. Wakeman (1892, 101-103) describes a 'boreen' that once provided access to the church at Killiney. On the left hand side of this 'boreen' he describes a cairn, or altar, by which stood an old thorn tree. This was considered to be sacred by the local population. There is no trace of this tree.
