Nearly everything else has been reduced to footings and fragments. The north nave wall stands only to 1.4 metres; the south wall to a mere 0.35 metres. What makes the site quietly arresting is how much the standing gable communicates about the building that once existed: the steep pitch implied by its height, a window embrasure with splayed ingoing sides (a technique that widens the reveal internally to admit more light), and the base-batter, a slightly projecting slope at the foot of the outer wall face that was used to deflect rainwater and add structural stability at ground level.

The church served the parish of Templetenny, which appears in the Civil Survey of 1654 to 1656 as part of the Barony of Iffay and Offay, listed alongside two chapels of ease known as Kilmolash and Tampletunny. The building itself is a nave and chancel plan, a common medieval Irish church arrangement in which a main body leads through an arch into a smaller eastern sanctuary. That chancel arch, pointed and measuring 2.1 metres high by 2.6 metres wide, still stands, though it has been repaired at some point with cement mortar. The construction throughout is sandstone rubble, roughly coursed, with the quoins at the surviving north-west angle formed of noticeably crude blocks. Scattered around the interior and the graveyard are architectural fragments including three jamb stones and a coping stone; several of the jamb pieces retain an external chamfer and an internal rebate, details that suggest at least one doorway or window opening of some formal finish, even if the rest of the building was built to a fairly modest standard.
