The National Monuments Service's description
Shown on the 1839 and 1908 OS '6-inch maps'. The graveyard is depicted as being D-shaped (map dims. c. 37m N-S; c. 49m E-W along straight N side) with a church (CW001-003001-) running E-W forming the N boundary on the 1839 OS 6-inch map though on the 1908 map the church is depicted by a cross and the enclosing element of the graveyard itself forms the N boundary.
