Description

The churchyard at Anwoth is surrounded by rubble walls and features several notable stones from the 18th century. Within the churchyard, there is an earlier 19th century mausoleum designed in an Egypto-Grecian style, which shows the influence of Walter Newall. This mausoleum is constructed from coursed cyclopean granite and has a ramped timber door.
