Dist:0.2km<br/>Details of the south side of the church. There are few churches nearby and the area is sparsely populated with few villages. Did/does this church serve an extensive area?

Dist:0.5km<br/>The gate has been padlocked, with one massive chain. Barbed wire has been wrapped round the top of the gate.

This is to be reported to the appropriate council department.
