What is recorded here

According to the OSL (Herity 2002, 45 139)), 'Burial is still continued in the graveyard'. On level ground at the top of a long and very gentle W-facing slope in tillage, near the W bank of the River Liffey. A ruined church (KD019-002001-) stands in the NE sector. Recorded on the latest ed. (1938-9) of the OS 6-inch map as a partially enclosed (along E and S), rectangular area (dims. L c. 70m E-W; Wth c. 45m), its extent has been significantly reduced since (dims. L 36.5m E-W; Wth c. 24m). Now enclosed by rail and post fencing, it survives as a slightly raised area defined by a low scarp (H 0.5m), with no obvious trace of grave markers.
