Two chest tombs, the kind of lidded stone box graves common in post-Reformation Protestant burial grounds, date to 1681 and 1683, belonging respectively to the Vowel and Peard families. Two headstones follow close behind, dated 1689 to the Thomas and Jesyp families. Alongside these early markers stands a collection of 271 inscribed headstones, the majority more than a century old when catalogued by O Buachalla and Henchion in 1966, gathered to the south of the ruined Church of Ireland building at the graveyard's centre.

The church itself incorporates the fabric of an earlier medieval structure, and it is on the footprint of that older chancel that the Barrymore mausoleum was erected, anonymously, around 1747. The building is rectangular with a hipped roof, and its east elevation carries a pedimented breakfront built in brick, a formal classical gesture that sets it apart from the rougher stonework around it. The interior is circular and largely empty, save for a classical wall monument on the west side commemorating James Barry, Earl of Barrymore. That monument was carved in 1753 by Sheehan and Houghton of Dublin, a firm documented by art historian Homan Potterton. Behind the mausoleum, an external stair descends to a crypt, now used as a store rather than a burial chamber. A second, smaller mausoleum with a similar hipped roof stands nearby, belonging to the Peard family, whose presence in the graveyard stretches back to that 1683 chest tomb.

The graveyard sits on the north side of the road and is enclosed by a stone wall on the south, a tree-lined field fence to the north and east, and a newer stone wall to the west where a modern extension begins. The layering of periods is visible simply by moving through it: medieval church remains beneath a Georgian mausoleum, seventeenth-century chest tombs beside Victorian headstones, an aristocratic monument carved by Dublin craftsmen in a building whose builder chose to remain unnamed.
