A long rectangular enclosure (dims. c. 20m E-W; 7m N-S) defined by a slight bank at N and W, elsewhere reduced to a scarp marks the site of the levelled church. On the 1837 ed.

The levelled church site was located at the N end of a D-shaped enclosure (dims. c. 46m N-S; 35m E-W) which is defined by a low scarp and a post-1700 field boundary which forms the straight side of the enclosure from E-S. No church depicted in Templeoran on the 1654 Down Survey map of the parish of Clonfad (NLI Ms, 723-44). The Boyd Belvedere Maps of 1818 (WCL/M/BBE/4) located in Westmeath County Library annotates the area around the church as ‘Old Burial Ground’ (WM033-052001-).
