Situated on steep NW facing slope of rising ground in grassland. Toberallen holy well (WM012-204----) 75m to SW, and ringfort (WM012-181---) 175m to SE. The stream which marks the townland boundary with Knockatee lies 30m to the W. A narrow roadway formed the N boundary of Toberallen Churchyard and ran NE towards the public road as shown on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map. On this map a small rectangular shaped church aligned NE-SW is shown standing in centre of a small trapezoidal shaped churchyard which may have served as a burial ground (WM012-180002-). This building is depicted as 'Church Site of' on the revised 1911 ed. OS 25-inch map. A low grass-covered mound of stones (approx. diam. 5m N-S; 7m E-W; H 0.5m) in the centre of the churchyard marks the site of Toberallen Church. The faintest outline of the levelled church is barely visible on Digital Globe aerial photograph taken November 2011.
