Indicated faintly on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a circular area (diam. c. 25m) situated immediately E of church site (RO008-033001-). This is a D-shaped grass-covered platform (dims 13m N-S; 9.3m N-S) just E of the church defined by a scarp (H 0.1-0.3m) which has been truncated at NW and E and the spoil added to the interior where only a few grave-markers (dims 0.25m x 0.1m; H 0.2m) can be seen.
