On a gentle NE-facing slope in gently undulating pastureland. A medieval church (TS088-018002-) is located N of centre in this rectangular graveyard (dims. 70m N-S; 41m E-W). There is a cross-slab (TS088-018003-) in the graveyard, S of the church. The earliest visible headstone dates from 1727, there are a lot of 18th and 19th century headstones and some of 20th century date.
