Associated with a medieval church (LF026-019001-). Lewis (1837, vol. 2, 555) recorded that it was ‘still a favourite burial-place'. The graveyard (c. 64m E-W; c. 52m N-S) is enclosed by a stone wall that is straight on the SW, NW and N sides but is curving on the E side. Memorials date from the 18th to the 20th centuries.
