What is recorded here

Grave Yard at Louth Hall is a circular burial ground set on a small hillock, preserving the curved shape of an early medieval sacred site even though its church has vanished. The missing building may have been carried away by farming, stone robbing or weather, yet the graveyard remained distinct enough to appear on the 1835 Ordnance Survey map. Its empty round edge still marks the place where the living once brought their dead beyond the ordinary world.

Sub-rectangular shaped graveyard indicated on the 'OSi 25-inch' map (map dims. c. 43m E-W; c. 36m N-S) with church remains (LH021-026001-) just E of centre. No graveslabs were noted when inspected by ASI in 1966, however reference to the existence of one lying on the ground in the 1930's (IFC Schools' Mss 674, 180).
