What is recorded here

Marked faintly as a rectangular burial ground (RO006-059002-) (dims c. 40m NW-SE; c. 30m NE-SW) on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on the gentle NE-facing slope of a rise. Large oval overgrown area (dims 103m NW-SE; 47m NE-SW), which remains unplanted in a coniferous forest, defined by an external scarp (H 0.5-1m) N-E and an internal scarp (H 0.5-1m) S-W. It is bisected by a N-S field bank (Wth 5m; H 0.2-0.3m). There is no visible surface evidence of a church or of burial, but there is a local tradition that it was a nunnery (RO006-059003-) (Gannon 1972).
