In pasture, on a N-facing slope overlooking a stream c. 70m to the N; on the W side of a graveyard (SL037-037002-). Fragmentary remains of a rectangular church (int. c. 18m E-W; 7m N-S). Only the W gable with short returns of the N and S walls (H c. 2m), and a short section of the E end of the S wall (H c. 1.2m), stand. Otherwise the lines of the N and S walls are defined by a scarped edge, and three large 19th-century grave-plots occupy the line of the E wall. The surviving walls (T 1.2m; max. H 2.5m) are built of coursed limestone blocks. The church is indicated as an L-shaped structure (20m E-W) on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. The remains of a castle (SL037-039----) lie c. 200m to ENE.
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).
