No obvious remains of a church in the burial ground but the central area is raised which might indicate foundation levels of a building. (O'Flannagan 1927, 30) Motte OF012-006001-) lies just to the E.
Located on N facing slope of a hill in undulating pasture land with large impressive Motte (OF012-006001-) to the E. In the W sector of the graveyard (OF012-005002-) there are the grass covered remains of N and E portions of a wall of roughly faced stones which may be the remains of a possible church (O'Flanagan 1927, 30). The N wall is 6m long, while the E wall is 2m long. The walls are an average of 0.75m high. No other architectural features visible.
