On entering the village, take the little lane on the right past the village shop. It is well signposted.

Saint Andrew Graveyard surrounds the Parish Church, which is owned by Church of England. Parts of the church are extremly old and date back to Norman times.

The condition of this cemetery is fair. Many of the headstones are made of sandstone and therefore badly weathered. Some of the headstones are so close they touch one another almost forming a wall, very unusual. Some headstones are leaning over. There are no recent burials there.

This list contains all existing and readable inscriptions when I visited on Feb 20, 2007. Unfortunately there are a number of headstones which are too weathered to read.
