What is recorded here

On a W-facing slope with a views limited to the W-N. A medieval church (KK027-046001-) is centrally placed within this small raised roughly oval-shaped graveyard (dims. c. 48m NE-SW; c. 28m NW-SE). It is enclosed by a stone wall and entered at the S end of the W side. The E end of the graveyard is considerably lower suggesting that it was dug out at some time. There are several burials in the interior, including a medieval graveslab (KK027-046003-) in the E portion of the graveyard. In the early 19th century the OS Letters (1839) it is described as, ‘an unfrequented burying ground attached’ (O’Flanagan 1930, vol. 1, 283 (95-6)).
