On gently sloping land above a steep-sided river valley which lies to the E and S. There are very good views to the E and S. According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 464) this was formerly the parish church of Kilmadum. On the 1st (1839) ed. the graveyard is indicated as a rectangular area (dims. c. 28m N-S; c. 18m E-W) but it is not indicated on the 1946-7 revision. The footings of the church (KK014-02001-) are visible within an irregularly shaped graveyard (dims. c. 37m N-S; c. 30m E-W) defined by a low broad bank (Wth 2m; H 0.1-0.2m) which curves in the W sector. According to the OS Letters (1839), 'there remain no appearance of graves about it, and nobody has been buried there within man's memory' (O'Flanagan ed. 1930, vol. 1, 30-31 (1071)).
