The National Monuments Service's description
On a N-facing slope of rising ground in upland area with extensive views to N, and higher ground to S. Large deep quarry immediately to N of graveyard, moated site (TS055-068----) 100m to S. Large rectangular graveyard (int. dims. 52m N-S; 62m E-W) enclosed by a high limestone wall with church (TS055-067001-) in the centre. The majority of the headstones are located S of the medieval church with no memorials to the N and few to the W of the church. Large medieval water spout of the church re-erected as a memorial in the SE quadrant of the graveyard. Graveyard appears to have cleaned up by a recent graveyard restoration scheme.
