A small cell, for two or three Augustinian Canons dependent on Kirkham Priory, was founded at Carham after 1131, and dissolved in 1539 (2). None of the buildings survive today, but there are indications that they lay to the west of the church. (3). (2-3)

The site falls on slightly terranced ground, and no traces of buildings are visible. West of the church, a shallow rise in the level of the graveyard may be artificial, but nothing indicative of building remains are apparent. The church is modern, and does not appear to incorporate any earlier structure. (4)
