The site of the medieval church (LI005-078001-) dedicated to St. Michael stood inside St. Michael's graveyard which consists of a rectangular shaped area (approx. dims. 36m N-S x 32m E-W ) enclosed by a post-1700 stone wall. Described by Westropp (1904-5, 359) as following; 'The parish church of St. Michael the Archangel, entirely destroyed in the times of Cromwell, lay near the walls outside the West Water Gate, 1658. The saint's day was 29th September. (White MSS.) Site It was long since levelled. The view in the 1590 map shows a building with a side aisle and a battlemented tower. The cemetery remains in James's Street, near Bank Place. Monument - Rev. Dr. E. Wright, Archdeacon, 1790'.
