The National Monuments Service's description
On the N side of Old Church Street, on a precipitous N-facing slope, with a good view of the town to the N. The graveyard is orientated roughly E-W with the church (TS075-048003-), also orientated E-W at the E end of the graveyard. The graveyard, enclosed by a stone wall, is roughly rectangular in plan (dims. c. 26m N-S at W end and c. 34m N-S at E end; c. 76m E-W) with the entrance at the S end of the W wall. There are a number of loose architectural fragments reused as grave-markers in the graveyard.
