Marked 'Site of Grave Yard' on 1839 'OS 6-inch' map. When inspected in the late 1980's the following was noted 'a small heap of field stones and several squared granite boulders, including two possible quoin stones lie on short stretch of foundation, visible as straight edge in grass'.
An archaeological assessment carried out in 2006 noted that no surface traces of this burial ground remained, however test excavation uncovered a single burial. (Devine, E. 2009, 45)
