Full Description
Remains of a church and sacrament house, with associated graveyard. Nothing remains of the old parish church of St Catherine/ Katerline, except an aumbry which is built into the graveyard wall on the left of the gate close inside. It is very plain, bearing rudely incised figures of a cross and sword and probably dates from the 16th century. There is also an incised slab built into the wall immediately above which seems to be part of a medieval gravestone. There are no surface remains of the church and were none when Jervise visited in 1870; later graves and gravestones now occupy its position. The graveyard is rectangular with a tall boundary wall, with numerous gravestones, mostly of 19th century date. The gatepiers date from 1817.
