The National Monuments Service's description
Possibly associated with a church (LF019-030----). This irregularly shaped graveyard (53m E-W; 52m N-S) is enclosed by a stone wall. Access is via a wrought-iron gate at NE. Memorials date from the late 17th (see LF019-030003- and LF019-030004-) to the 20th centuries. The church (C of I) in the N sector dates to the 19th century. A fragment of a late-medieval window sill that was reused as a grave-marker may be from the earlier church. A fragment of a cross (LF019-030002-) is visible in the S half. (Lennon 2005)
