What is recorded here
Access from Sutton Strand. A roughly square raised area defined by a masonry wall encloses the remains of the medieval parish church (DU015-021001-). The graveyard was originally built on the strand and was unenclosed. It has now been extensively expanded to the north to encompass three acres and is surrounded by a limestone rubble wall. The graveyard contains memorials from the 17th-20th century, the oldest clustered around the church. Still in use.
