Introduction
The churchyard entrance has a 19th-century lych gate, from where a path leads to the church. Among fine 18th- and 19th-century monuments are those of John T North of Avery Hill, the family vault of Sir William James, and of the Blenkiron family. One of the first Australian aborigines to visit Europe was also buried here in 1794.
