Description

The village pound is located on the west boundary of the churchyard of the Church of St Michael. Its date is uncertain, but it features random rubble Ham stone walling that stands about one metre high, enclosing a triangular piece of land immediately west of the churchyard. There is a gateway on the north side, although the gates are missing, and it is accessible from the approach path to the Church of St Michael. It is possible that this site was formerly the location of the Church House.
