Archaeology
Medieval burial ground. The chapel is enclosed within a rather irregular oval enclosure defined by an earthwork bank, measuring about 27 by 24m. Outside, on the south-west, lies a priest's cell. Although the enclosure was tested for burials, the Manx Archaeological Survey found none in 1910, having been frustrated by tree roots. The presence of the embanked enclosure, together with the recovery of a stone gravemarker, implies that burials are nevertheless likely.
