The interior of this 15th-century building and a strip, 2m wide, along the north side were excavated in advance of restoration work. Seventeenth-century finds were recovered from disturbed layers in the interior. There were some relatively modern burials in the strip outside the north wall. Portions of earlier mortared walls were uncovered.
