A house tomb inside the church, next to the main doorway.


This ruinous church is north of the A505 just outside Cookstown.
It was built in 1620, but no other details are available. The building is roofless but stands at its full height on all sides.
There's a wide rounded arch west-northwest (295°) doorway, a large east-southeast window, another large window in the south-southwest wall and a smaller window in the north-northeast wall.
The building is much overgrown, some headstones are inside the church, others lie around it along with two family tombs.
On some walls the original plaster is still visible.
