Description
Graveyard with collection of lichen-spotted markers, ob. 1802-1957. Set in unkempt grounds with benchmark inscribed granite ashlar piers to perimeter having cut-granite shallow pyramidal capping supporting spear head-detailed wrought iron double gates.
Appraisal
A graveyard representing an important component of the ecclesiastical heritage of Rosbercon [SMR WX029-013020-]. NOTE: No upstanding evidence survives of the church described (1885) as 'small [with] diamond-paned clear windows and a rustic porch…it walls [being] entirely clothed with well trimmed ivy' (Bassett 1885, 207).
