Situated in flat pastureland in Brittas Demesne. The church (TN041-007) is situated in the NW angle of a square-shaped graveyard and is constructed of roughly coursed limestone rubble. The W wall of the church (TN041-007) also forms the W wall of the graveyard. The N wall of the graveyard continues on the line of the N wall of the church but is not keyed-in. The graveyard is entered through a round-headed arch in the E wall with engaged pillars on either side. The earliest visible headstone in the graveyard dates to 1782 and commemorates James Sweeney, a worker on the estate. Other gravestones are predominantly Knoxs and Langleys of nineteenth-century date. A number of crude gravemarkers are also present. This appears to be an estate church with no visible evidence of medieval origin. Marked as 'church in ruins' on the 1st ed. (1843) OS 6-inch map, however, there is no entry in the OS Letters.
