Description:  Medieval burial ground. The site comprises an elliptical grass covered mound with a fairly uneven top raised an average of 1m above the surrounding ground. It measures about 45m from north to south and 25m from east to west.

Although investigated by the Manx Archaeological Survey in 1917, no graves were found, despite the well-defined enclosure surrounding the chapel. No other records of burials are known.
