This complex of religious structures sits on pasture land that slopes gently towards Lough Akibbon, about 800 metres to the east. The site encompasses several notable features within and around a modern stone-walled graveyard, including the remains of what’s known as ‘the Abbey’, a rectangular structure measuring roughly 11.8 metres east to west and 5.2 metres north to south. Though its mortared walls now stand only 30 to 60 centimetres high and have suffered considerable interference over the centuries, an ashlar quoin in the southwest corner hints at its once more substantial construction.

Two weathered crosses stand sentinel near the graveyard; one rises from a rocky mound 20 metres to the northwest, whilst another stands about 20 metres south. Both crosses have been badly eroded by time, standing 1.22 and 1.4 metres tall respectively, with arms that are now barely discernible. The southern cross is particularly significant as it marks a station on a traditional turas, or pilgrimage route, with loose stones piled against its base by generations of pilgrims. A holy well, now surrounded by a modern concrete wall, lies southeast of this cross, continuing to draw those seeking spiritual connection to this ancient site.

The most architecturally significant structure here is St. Columbkille’s Chapel, located just southwest of the graveyard. This simple rectangular church, dating from the 16th century, was documented as being in good repair with a thatched roof in 1622 and remained in use as late as 1810. The rubble-built structure, measuring 6 by 3.95 metres internally, features distinctive ashlar quoins and punch-dressed doorways and windows characteristic of its period. Despite losing its east gable and upper window during a violent storm at the end of the 19th century, subsequent repairs have preserved much of its original character, including the round-headed east window with moulded jambs and the pointed arches of its doorways. Inside, an altar stands against the east gable, flanked by two projecting stone shelves, whilst the adjoining northern structure houses a peculiar semi-circular flagstone with a shallow circular depression, possibly used for ritual purposes during the site’s long history as a place of pilgrimage and worship.
