    There is not much history to be got about the old cemetery. In the olden times it was owned by Sir Beccan and he had a convent there. Many people went there and became monks. The is only one one relic of the past left and that is the Church and a vault. This vault is open and there is a coffin it it. Mary Berry is the name on the coffin and she died on the 3rd March 1801. The Churchyard is surrounded be trees and a relic at the back
