Churchyard wall. In the churchwardens' accounts for East Budleigh in 1592-3 there are various payments for building a churchyard wall at Woodbury. These include 'for the beatinge of earthe', for 'the carriage of stones for the foundation of the churchytard wall' and for 'chopping the strawe' (citing Brushfield).

Part of the wall around the closed churchyard of St Swithun's Church has been removed for repair. It appears that only the top courses have been taken down (about 50cm height), roughly corresponding with the height of the bank on the interior of the wall. It does not look as though any further courses are to be removed or the bank otherwise affected. No other archaeological feartures are evident, or are likely to be exposed.
