The National Monuments Service's description
A roughly level area to the W of a graveyard (SL034-085002-) is defined by a gently curving arc of naturally sloping ground, 27m W of the graveyard wall. This naturally-occurring arc may indicate the circuit of an ecclesiastical enclosure around the church (SL034-085001-) and graveyard.
