Notes: According to CPAT 'there is little to suggest that this is an early medieval foundation, yet despite the fact that the Liber Landavensis recorded the consecration of a church here in 1060 it is conceivable that the site goes back to a much earlier time'. Of the 6 yews in the churchyard, 3 are ancient specimens.
