A long gone council
The sign refers to the North Avon District Council, which was part of the former Avon County Council. Both disappeared under the reorganisation of 1996, but there does appear to be a bona fide footpath through the former churchyard.

The tombs and the tower remain
St Thomas's church dated from around the 1600s and substantially rebuilt in 1842. However, then structure became more unsteady and serious problems were declared in 1962. The church was declared redundant in 1971 and the main body demolished. The local parish took over responsibility in the 1980s.
