What is recorded here

Marked 'Cill' only on the 1925 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and reputedly the burial place of unbaptised children (WA006-017003-) and the site of a penal church (OS Name Books), although there is no evidence of either. Situated on a severe SW-facing slope down to the E-W Nier River, c. 70m to the SW. Overgrown subcircular area (dims. 25m NE- SW; 22m NW-SE) defined by a field wall (Wth 1m; H 0.2-0.7m) S-N, an internal scarp (max. H 1.8m) N-E and an external scarp (H 0.5m) E-S (downslope). The interior at S is raised with field stones. Date of upload/revision: 27th July, 2010. Compiled by: Michael Moore.
