There is a pewter communion service of two cups and saucers, which was in use about 1830. A mellow whitewashed stone wall encloses the yard. The tops of the irregular old gravestones show above it. Some are rough hewn from brown stone with marks of chipping tools, and have crudely lettered Celtic words on Interested in Newark history?
