Looking out from the south porch of the church across the graveyard to the terraced houses on the street called Churchtown which runs round the south side of the church grounds. The level of the churchyard is raised about three feet higher than the level of the road and the church itself. This is not uncommon for graveyards which have been in use for the best part of a thousand years.
