What is recorded here

Located just off the crest of the E-facing slope of a wide N-S col with summits c. 400m to the SW and c. 700m to the NNW. This is an early ecclesiastical site consisting largely of an ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-048003-). There is no evidence of a church structure (WA002-048001-), but a graveyard is marked on faintly on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a subrectangular area (dims. c. 60m E-W; c. 55m N-S) on the inner side of the enclosure perimeter at W, but no evidence of it survives.

Early medieval ecclesiastical site, likely 7th to 10th century. Its location suggests a connection to monastic or burial activity in a strategic upland setting, potentially linked to a wider network of early Christian sites.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
