The National Monuments Service's description

On the 1st edition OS 6-inch (1842 ) there is a field named 'Church Field' and an area identified as the 'Old Burying Ground' outlined in the N end of the same field. Other than this placename there is no supporting documentary evidence for a church at this location. The area has been extensively quarried. Not visible at ground level.
