What is recorded here
Associated with a medieval church (GA095-029002-) and an ecclesiastical enclosure (GA095-029001-); this subrectangular graveyard (c. 45m E-W; c. 40m N-S) lies immediately to the S of the church. It is enclosed by a stone wall which curves slightly around the S sector, suggesting that it may be following the line of an internal division of the ecclesiastical enclosure. On inspection in December 1982 several upright headstones were visible in the interior. On re-inspection in August 1992 they could not be seen due to the dense growth of thorn trees and bushes which made the graveyard virtually impenetrable. Current OSi aerial imagery indicates that the graveyard has since been cleared of overgrowth.
