The oldest portion of the graveyard is rectangular (c. 50m E-W; c. 30m N-S) and contains the ruin of Court Abbey (SL032-047001-), in the NW corner. It was extended to the N and S in the 19th and 20th centuries and contains many headstones from these periods. The earliest headstone noted was dated 1789 and is located inside the abbey. An 18th-century burial vault of the O'Hara family is set into the NW corner of the chancel.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
