The ruin of the church was sketched by Throsby for the 1797 edition of Thoroton. (1)
The site of the church is "in corner of field adjoining an orchard, and near a farmstead." Its outline (54ft x 18ft) can still be traced. Throsby states that the church was in use about 1730, but in ruins about 1790. (2)
The church was situated in a rectangular enclosure just to the N of the farm. Site under grass when visited. (3)
… a large raised enclosure which stands about 1.5m above the street level. In the centre of this enclosure is a clearly defined rectangular platform which stands about 0.5m higher still. … …. Human bone has been recovered from the southern banks of the churchyard enclosure. (4) (5)
"Church Site Farm" is excluded from the scheduled area.
