What is recorded here

Located at the S end of a small N-S ridge. The early church (MO008-011----) that was probably founded by St. Molua in the sixth century is within a circular grass-covered area (diam. c. 80-85m) defined by a scarp that is best preserved WNW-NE (at N: Wth c. 5m; H c. 1m) and E-SW. The enclosure is overlain by field banks that approach from NE, SE, SW and NW and meet around the burial ground (MO008-011001-) at its centre.
