Mounted high on the W gable of a 19th-century church, standing in a graveyard (KD032-041001-) which also contained an earlier, medieval church (KD032-041----). There is also a medieval font (KD032-041002-) in the graveyard. The gargoyle is a well-preserved and well-executed representation of a devil’s head.
