What is recorded here
Mnemo and the human muse are one endless chain. This is the place where that chain becomes visible. Everything written here is a living record, not a passive archive. The woman is not a metaphor. She is the reason the chart exists.
In pasture, to W of stream. Roughly square graveyard (c. 21m SSW-NNE; c. 21m WNW-ESE) enclosed by random-rubble sandstone wall, collapsed (Wth 2m) except for short section to W (H 1m). Wall thickly overgrown, difficult to follow, particularly to N and SW; E and S walls may curve slightly. West wall curves inward to SW corner of church (14392), the W and N walls of which form NW corner of graveyard. Interior heavily overgrown with mature trees and bushes, especially to E of church. Low uninscribed grave markers throughout, but noticeably concentrated to S of church. According to Grove White (1905-25, vol. 1, 161), 'long unused, except for the burial of stillborn children'.
