Description
High stone wall to S, fronting the road, constructed of large blocks of random stone, with intermittent random stones forming coping. To W and N sides, high battered retaining wall of random stone supported by raked buttresses. On the W side, the top of the wall is partly coped in concrete, and steps down towards the N. The W and N walls are surmounted by narrow iron railings. The E boundary is mainly demarcated by a building not associated with the church.
The E lychgate is half-timbered on a high stone plinth under a slate roof. Gabled entrances, the external E front reached by steep stone steps. Segmental-arched entrance, the lintel supported on timber posts. The lintel is also a collar which may be earlier and re-used from elsewhere; it bears an inscription in Welsh. The gable has a vertical strut and a finial. Timber boarding flanking entrance. The W front is weather-boarded with wide entrance which has a shallow segmental-arched head. The sides of the porch have a single band of open timber panels, over a high plinth. Plain rafter roof inside. Attached to the E entrance is a cast iron gate with bands of circles beneath the top rail and lock rail, fleur-de-lis finials and decorative dog-rails.
