Roughly 55 metres along its longer axis and 25 metres across, it is entered through a gateway and stile at its southern end, the kind of low-key arrangement that suggests a place maintained out of quiet obligation rather than ceremony. What makes it worth a second look is the presence of an architectural fragment associated with the site, a carved or worked piece of stonework separated from whatever structure originally gave it purpose.

The earliest recorded burial here dates to 1868, placing the graveyard firmly in the Victorian period, when demesne graveyards of this kind were not uncommon on landed estates across Ireland. A demesne, in the Irish context, refers to the private parkland and grounds attached to a big house, and graveyards within them could serve estate families, their staff, or local Catholic communities depending on the circumstances of the estate. The architectural fragment catalogued alongside this graveyard hints at some earlier or more elaborate structure in the vicinity, though what it once belonged to is not recorded.
