The National Monuments Service's description
At Montiagh graveyard (SL042-004001-). The S two thirds of the graveyard are raised (max. H 2.6m) above the external ground level, with the mortared stonework of a limekiln (indicated on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map) acting as a revetment. This is likely to be post-1700 AD in date.
