Notes: Paul Wood: A medieval church. It is quite evident that all local roads, tracks and paths lead to the churchyard. The name of the local stream on the churchyard's north boundary is the 'CLAS' brook. I agree with others that this is a site of early Christian foundation. Many trees grow in this churchyard.
