• MA061-093001 Church
  Description

  In rough pasture, with rising ground to N, and a farmstead immediately to NE. There is a children’s burial ground (MA061-093002-) 15m to SE. Aldridge (1969, 86) recorded that a rectangular plot, 30 feet [9m] by 11 feet [3.4m]', alongside the fence NW of the CBG [children's burial ground] is pointed out as the site of the church.' At this location there is a ruined rectangular stone-built building (c. 10m N-S; c. 6m E-W). Low remnants of the S, W and N walls (int. H c. 0.2m; ext. H 0.5m) can be traced beneath dense overgrowth. The E wall has been incorporated into, or truncated by a field wall on a N−S axis. There is a bullaun stone (MA061-093003-) in the SW corner of the interior. The interior of the building is filled with loose rubble, with a sycamore tree growing out of it. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 March 2018

• MA061-093002 Children's burial ground
  Description

  In rough pasture, with rising ground to N, and farmstead immediately to NE. A modern farm shed stands adjacent to the SW corner of the burial ground. Slightly raised rectangular area (16m N−S; 23m E−W) defined on the N and E by field walls, which border the NE corner of the modern field. When inspected in 1988 the S and W sides were bordered by a line of stones varying in size, but a subsequent inspection in 1998 found that a post and wire fence had been erected on the S and W sides. In the interior, simple uninscribed stone grave markers (Wth 0.3-0.5m; H 0.2-0.3m) can be seen, barely protruding above the ground surface. Small subrectangular burial plots are outlined by stones, with an upright slab at either end, and in some cases slabs lie flat on the interior surface of the plot. Boulders placed on top of smaller stones also appear to mark graves. In 1988 large pieces of quartz were noted lying on top of some graves. Much of the interior is strewn with loose stones and obscured by overgrowth, and trees and overgrowth grow around the perimeter. The ruins of a possible church (MA061-093002-) and a bullaun stone (MA061-093003-) are located 15m to NW. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 March 2018

• MA061-093003 Bullaun stone
  Description

  Located in the SW corner of a possible church (MA061-093001-). An irregular-shaped boulder (c. 0.5m X 0.6m; T 0.34m) with a circular central depression (diam. 0.27m; D 0.16m) on the upper surface. The stone is broken into two pieces. It lies partly obscured by the rubble and overgrowth that fills the interior of the ruined church. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 16 March 2018
