Larkin's map of 1808 shows a ruin (WM014-009001-) in the graveyard of Crowinstown Great (SMR file). Present remains consist of a small semi-circular shaped graveyard enclosed from S-W, N & NNE by the remains of a low bank set on a scarp with a shallow external fosse at its foot. From NNE-E-S the graveyard is bounded by a stone wall with the roadway beyond it. The graveyard contains a number of 18th, 19th & 20th century memorials. In the N part of the interior there is a scatter of stones, however there is no definite trace of a wall footing of a building or possible church visible on the surface. The surrounding field has been under tillage & there is no trace of any earthworks here’ (ASI Field Report 28/10/1980).
