Near NE corner of graveyard (LI054-004002-). Only ivy-clad E gable (L 7.8m; full length c. 8m), and short return of S wall (L 0.7m), now stand; shown as rectangular (c. 20m E-W) church 'in ruins' on 1840 OS 6-inch map- remaining area of church now covered by burial plots. Built of roughly coursed limestone blocks. In centre is window with double ogee-headed light, missing its mullion; splayed embrasure covered by segmental arch has dressed limestone blocks along inner edge. Formerly church of Gort na Tiobraid (Westropp 1904-5, 406) which Spellissy (1989, 158) suggests may have been a chapel-of-ease built by Fitzgeralds (see LI054-005---).
