By 1842, OS 6-inch map shows newly erected C of I church immediately NE of old church (CO098-037004-), this was concecrated 'under the name of Christ Church' (Brady ibid, 71) in 1849; now reduced to low mound of rubble; no visible surface trace of earlier church. Surrounding this is extensive early ecclesiastical enclosure (5160) (Hurley 1980, 56).
