The modest form and scale of this Board of First Fruits Church is enhanced by its elegant, finely carved stone windows with pointed trefoil-headed lancets and quatrefoils, impressive door and castellated tower. The scene is complimented by the graveyard with its collection of grave markers, including a mausoleum. The stone wall, lined with mature trees and cast-iron gates to the entrance complete this picturesque setting.
