Full Description

{1} Present boundary shown but may have changed over time.

{2} The watching brief encountered eight graves within the service trench in the churchyard, with skeletal remains being exposed in five of the graves. The alignment of the graves and the presence of fragments of coffin furniture and other artefactual material indicates that they all date to the late 18th to 19th centuries. No evidence was encountered for earlier burials or archaeological remains.
