Churchyard and burial ground, consecrated in 1827. Walled, gated enclosure with church, surrounded by collection of carved gravestones, table tombs and memorials, many retaining cast-iron railings. Contains modern section and mature trees.
This graveyard is well-maintained and enhances the church. It displays the evolution of Victorian funerary design and cast-ironwork – frequently destroyed elsewhere. Notable family plots enhance its historic interest.
