Description
The churchyard wall, likely built in the 18th or 19th century, is made of granite rubble and features chamfered coping. It stands approximately 4 feet 6 inches high, increasing to about 6 feet at the north-west end. There are three gateways, each with stone seats on either side, and the north-west gateway includes three semi-circular steps. This wall is included for its group value with the Church, Vicarage, and other listed items on Mousehole Lane, excluding Nos 1 and 2 Mount View.
