The site of the early church of St. Scíre that became the parish church of Kilskyre (ME016-043----) is within a graveyard which was rectangular (dims c. 65m E-W; c. 40m N-S) as marked on the 1836 ed. of the OS 6-inch map but it has been extended to the W (dim. c. 80m E-W) and is defined by an earthen bank at W and N, a masonry wall at E, and a scarp at S. The table tomb of Hugh O’Reilly and his wife Katherine Plunkett (ME016-043002-) and two armorial plaques (ME016-043003-; ME016-043004-) are in the graveyard. The tower house (ME016-042----) is also within the present graveyard. There are large enclosures from a field system (ME016-044----) in the surrounding fields.
