Built from granite boulders with small pinning stones filling the gaps, the church measures just 9.25 metres by 4.5 metres internally; a modest structure even by medieval Irish standards. Today, only portions of the original walls survive, with the south wall having completely vanished and the north wall reduced to less than a metre in height. The grass now grows freely within the roofless interior, which sits slightly raised above the surrounding ground level.

The most substantial remnants are found in the gable ends, though even these show significant deterioration. The eastern gable, standing at 4.5 metres high, has lost almost its entire interior face, with only a few stones hinting at what was once a narrow window opening, approximately 1.2 metres high with a characteristically wide internal splay that would have allowed more light into the dark interior. A modern gabled niche, added to house a shrine or memorial, now occupies the northeast corner of this gable. The western gable, though lower at just 2 metres, retains a small oculus; a circular window measuring 25 centimetres high by 20 centimetres wide, which would have provided additional illumination.

Despite careful archaeological survey work, no architectural details survive that might help date the building precisely. The church’s simple construction method and modest dimensions are typical of rural Irish churches from various periods between the early medieval era and the 17th century. Its location within an active graveyard has ensured its preservation as a monument, even as the structure itself has gradually succumbed to the elements. The site was documented as part of the comprehensive Archaeological Survey of County Donegal in 1983, which catalogued the county’s field antiquities from the Mesolithic period through to the 17th century.
