This small, subrectangular enclosure, measuring roughly 25 metres east to west and 15 metres north to south, is defined by stone walls on three sides whilst the fourth opens directly onto the cliff face. The site's most intriguing feature lies near its centre: three drystone walls forming a small rectangular structure, about 4 metres by 5 metres internally, which locals have long referred to as a 'church'. However, archaeological evidence suggests this may simply be the remains of a small stone enclosure rather than a proper ecclesiastical building.

Within this central structure, visitors can spot several remarkable features that speak to the site's religious significance. In the northeast corner sits a low, flat-topped rubble cairn known locally as an 'altar', though it's more likely a leacht; a type of outdoor stone monument common at early Irish Christian sites. Beside this stands a cross-inscribed stone slab, measuring 85cm tall and bearing a plain Latin cross on its western face. A quern stone once rested atop the altar but has since been relocated to the nearby maritime museum in Greencastle. Near the western entrance to the graveyard, a small stone cross still stands, supported by half of its original socket stone. The arrangement bears a striking resemblance to similar structures at Ollamurray on Inishmurray island in County Sligo, suggesting shared religious traditions across Ireland's Atlantic coast.

The site's history extends well into the early modern period, with records from 1834 noting that Kilblaney formed its own separate parish before 1620, when the ruins of Kilblaney church could still be seen on what was described as 'a detached rock'. Sadly, not all of the site's treasures have survived; according to the current landowner, a second decorated slab featuring scrollwork was removed from the site in recent years and its whereabouts remain unknown. Archaeological monitoring carried out in 2003 in fields northeast of the burial ground revealed no additional features, suggesting the site's boundaries have remained relatively unchanged. Today, the numerous grave markers scattered throughout the enclosure continue to mark this windswept spot as a place of reverence and remembrance, where generations of locals have been laid to rest overlooking the waters of Lough Foyle.
