The National Monuments Service's description

On a rise of ground sloping gradually to S-SW in undulating pasture. A road runs outside the southern boundary of the graveyard and there is a house to the W. Cramps Castle (TS070-045002-) is visible 640m to the SW. The church (TS070-015----) is on the N side of a rectangular graveyard (dims. 42m N-S; 25m E-W), which is defined by an earthen bank. The graveyard is entered through a stone stile towards the W end of the S side. Along the N side the bank kicks in to meet the E and W gable of the church, the N wall of the church forming part of the boundary. Within the rectangular graveyard there is evidence of an earlier curving enclosure (N-S from the S wall of the church 12m; E-W 40m) defined by a bank (Wth at crest 1.1m; Wth at base 3.2m; H above int. 0.4m; H above ext. 0.8m) from S-W-N. This curving enclosure is 1m within the rectangular enclosure at its maximum extent and curves to the N and S to join with the rectangular enclosure. In the graveyard the headstones are of 18th/19th century date and there are a number of small boulders functioning as grave-markers.
