Full description

The churchyard at the Church of St Mary is depicted on the 2nd edition 25 inch Ordnance Survey County Series map. It is thought to date to the 15th century, when the church it serves was built (see PRN 41306). Fragments of mid 10th century to the mid 11th century Anglo-Saxon sculpture are reported to have been found within the churchyard, however, which may indicate an earlier use of this site for burials and possibly suggest the presence of an earlier church (see PRN 41682). {1}
