Description
The churchyard wall, located approximately 30 metres north of the Church of Saint Mary, is likely from the 18th century. It is constructed of cob on a high coursed stone rubble plinth, topped with pantiled coping. The wall follows a wide arc, measuring approximately 45 metres in length, along part of the north side of the churchyard. It features six bays that are divided by square buttresses or piers. The third bay from the east has been rebuilt in stone rubble, likely during the 19th century.
