In an area of gently undulating pastureland, located on a SE-facing slope. A road skirts the graveyard at N–E. There is a holy well (MA063-043001-) located c. 200m to SW. Sub-rectangular walled area (c. 50m NW–SE; c. 50m NE–SW) with a high density of burials, the earliest inscribed gravestone dating to the 19th-century. On the 1838 OS 6-inch map it is marked as ‘Grave Yard’ and a rectangular building indicated as ‘R.C. Chapel’ (MA063-050001-) is indicated at the N end; no trace of this chapel is now evident.
