Site of Bruis Church is a church in Bruis, County Tipperary, Ireland. The rectangular graveyard stands at the southeast end of a north-south grassland ridge, while Bruis motte sits 160 metres to the north. A small central mound may mark the church because no building remains visible, although an 1840 map placed the church north of the graveyard centre.
