The National Monuments Service's description
Associated with 'St. Annin's Church' (GA068-024----). On inspection in July 1983, numerous grave-markers and graves dating to the 18th and 19th centuries were visible within this large roughly rectangular graveyard (c. 87m NNW-SSE; c. 60m ENE-WSW). On re-inspection in March 2020, it was found that a graveyard clean-up had removed most of the vegetation within it.
