Description

 
Source Number  

1 The old church of St Mary (PRN 986) consists of a chancel only, fitted up as a chapel, about 8.2m by 5m and is of late 13th century date. The nave was pulled down in 1875-6. The font is 15th century.
2 When the new church of St Mary was built in 1875 the old church was considered unnecessary and the nave was taken down. The chancel was retained to serve as a mortuary chapel (PRN 5123).
4 The chapel is still used for occasional church services, and the parish graveyard is here and not at the new church. Both internally and externally the chapel is in good condition.

Description  
source OS Card Ordnance Survey Record Card. Before the 1970s the Ordnance Survey (OS) were responsible for recording archaeological monuments during mapping exercises. This helped the Ordnance Survey to decide which monuments to publish on maps. During these exercises the details of the monuments were written down on record cards. Copies of some of the cards are kept at the Warwickshire Sites and Monuments Record. The responsibility for recording archaeological monuments later passed to the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historic Monuments. back
source SMR Card Sites and Monuments Record Card. The Warwickshire Sites and Monuments Record began to be developed during the 1970s. The details of individual archaeological sites and findspots were written on record cards. These record cards were used until the 1990s, when their details were entered on to a computerised system. The record cards are still kept at the office of the Warwickshire Sites and Monuments Record. back
