Its southern wall, once the enclosure of a place of worship, was rebuilt as a boundary wall for a laneway, and dressed stones from the original structure were simply reused in the process. The building is still there, technically, but it takes some effort of imagination to read it as such: ivy smothers both gables, mature ash trees grow against the walls and inside the roofless interior, and most of the north wall has been levelled to the ground.

What remains is enough to reconstruct something of the church's character. The structure measures roughly fifteen metres from east to west and just over five metres across, a modest but not unusual footprint for a rural medieval church. The most telling survival is the northern half of the east window, defined by three finely cut dressed stones. A chamfered and rebated sill stone, only sixteen centimetres wide, confirms it was a lancet window, the tall, narrow, pointed type common in Irish ecclesiastical architecture from the medieval period onward. A second chamfered stone, visible in the rebuilt southern wall, appears to have been the matching middle stone from the same window, transplanted when the wall was reconstructed. The tooling on these stones, according to Dr Christy Cunniffe, who first brought the site to wider attention, points to a fifteenth or sixteenth-century date. The church sits immediately to the east of a tower house, the kind of fortified residence built by Gaelic and Anglo-Norman lords across this period, suggesting the two structures were likely part of the same local complex.

The interior is strewn with overgrown boulders, probably collapsed wall material slowly being consumed by vegetation. Local tradition holds that this was once a children's burial ground, known in Irish as a cillín, an informal place of interment used for unbaptised infants who could not be buried in consecrated ground. Such sites are found across Ireland, often attached to or near ruined churches, and carry a particular weight in local memory even when the physical evidence has all but disappeared.
