What is recorded here

Within the NE corner of a graveyard (GA096-110001-) in pastureland. All that survives of this medieval church is the E gable (Wth c. 9m) and the returns of the N (L 2.1m; wall T 0.75m) and S (L 1.05m) side-walls. The N wall is incorporated into the enclosing wall of the graveyard. The only intact architectural feature is a two-light ogee-headed window in the E gable. Some worked stone, including fragments of ogee heads, have been placed at the broken end of the S wall.
