The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the E end of an E-W ridge, just off the crest towards the S slope, in pasture. On the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map the church (TN033-005001) is surrounded by a trapezoidal enclosure entitled 'Burial Ground' (TN033-005003). Some of the stones in the ruined church may be burial markers. The OS Namebooks note that children were still being buried within the walls of the church.
