Present remains consist of a rectangular-shaped graveyard (approx. dims. 32m N-S x 47m E-W) enclosed by a post-1700 stone wall. Graveyard enclosing element depicted on the first ed. OS 6-inch map with curving boundary from N-E-SSE and elsewhere by a straight field boundary. The oldest memorial belongs of Denis Hogan who died in 1785 (O'Kelly 1943, 224).
