Description
It is concluded here that the walling examined dates to between 1850 and 1860. This walling is built over a surviving fragment of sandstone walling that is outside the property boundary of the church and must represent the earlier adjacent building. The construction work in this area represents the reordering of the former churchyard area following the closure of the burial ground and the conversion of the church into a school.
