Situated on a rise in an undulating landscape. The early church (ME011-037----) is at the summit of the mound of a D-shaped graveyard (dims c. 60m E-W; c. 35m N-S) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.6-4.5m; int. H 0.2; ext. H 0.7m) SW-NW or a scarp (H 0.7-1m), but this obscures a wall which is visible at S (L c. 20m; H 0.3m). The graveyard was extended all round and defined anew with a masonry wall (max. dims c. 70m E-W; c. 40-65m N-S), although it may have truncated the old graveyard slightly on the N side. The headstones in the newly enclosed area date from c. 1900. Since then the graveyard has been extended to the N (dims c. 50-65m NNE-SSW; c. 60m WNW-ESE) where it is defined by cement walls. The base of a high cross (ME011-037005-) is in the graveyard N of the church. Souterrain (ME011-035----) is outside the graveyard to the W. Parts of the graveyard wall, at SE and SW, collapsed as a result of hurricane Ophelia in 2017.
