This old church is a fantastic building, tastefully surrounded by a wall to protect it from the marauding cattle that share the field with it. It is a shame that the wall does not provide more space around it though.
Inside is quite fantastic. There is just one window - in the east wall, a small cubby hole in the north wall and a wonderful arched roof, which when compared with the tall pointed gables makes the roof extremely think. On the floor inside the door is a holed stone.
One thing that adds to this place is the fact that it stands in the shadow of the very picturesque ruins of St. Mary's Priory.
