Today, there is little of interest to the casual visitor. A relatively new wall surrounds the graveyard which contains only 'modern' memorials. In olden days the graveyard was known as Killuradan (the graveyard of St Uradan) and there was a St Uradan's Well nearby. St Curitan was active, it is said, between 700-75AD.
