House

On a ridge of rock outcrop in upland region with panoramic views in all directions. Evidence of earthworks on aerial photographs (CUCAP 1968, AVS 49) which are suggestive of a medieval or post-medieval settlement around the church (TS054-009001-). Possible house, 13m WNW of the church, consists of a rectangular area (dims. 10.5m N-S; 7m E-W), aligned N-S, defined by grassed-over wall-footings (Wth 1.8m crest; 3.3m base; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.44m) with a gap (Wth 2.4m), probably an entrance, in the E wall and a low grass-covered possible internal division (Wth 1.1m; max. H 0.2m) running E-W . The wall-footings of two other possible house sites have been identified (TS054-009003-; TS054-009005-) the former 35m to the NW, the latter 20m SE of the church, a large enclosure (TS054-009006-) 44m to the NE and a smaller enclosure (TS054-009007-) which encloses an area immediately NW of the church.
