- TS067-040 Enclosure
Description
In dense forestry, on top of ridge (long-axis E-W). Roughly circular area (dims. c. 55m N-S; c. 60m E-W) defined by earthen bank (Wth 4.6m; int. H c. 0.1m; ext. H c. 0.5m), reduced to scarp (H 0.5m) in places. Interior inaccessible due to overgrowth. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS067-044 Church
Description
On flat ground at break of fairly steep SE-facing slope, ground falls beyond break of slope to NE-E-S. The church was located roughly N of centre within a graveyard (TS067-044001-). The church is not visible at ground level. It is located in an area of very rough grazing which has been largely fenced off and was used in the past for dumping manure, mounds of soil (H c. 0.7m; average Wth c. 3.5m) with stones and some building rubble, including a concrete pier. According to local information a section of ivy-covered wall (H c. 2.5m) had been standing up to c. 25-30 years ago. The C of I church at Bansha, which replaced a medieval church (TS067-064----), is visible 1km to the SSE. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS067-044001 Graveyard
Description
On flat ground at break of fairly steep SE facing slope, ground falls beyond break of slope to NE-E-S. The graveyard is depicted on the 1st (1840-41) ed. OS 6-inch map as a roughly rectangular enclosure (dims. 43-56m N-S; 40-46m E-W) which had a shorter S wall, with the E and W walls splaying outwards towards a longer N wall. There is no visible trace above ground of the church (TS067-044----) which was located roughly N of centre in the graveyard. The graveyard is now an area of very rough grazing which has been largely fenced off and the area where the church was located has been used in the past for dumping manure, mounds of soil (H c. 0.7m; average Wth c. 3.5m) with stones and some building rubble, including a concrete pier.
