In 1688/9 Thomas Mounce gave land on his estate at Halbathick / Halbathic to be used for a Meeting House and Burial Ground for local Quakers. It was situated on the edge of Liskeard.
The Meeting House is now a private house and the remaining headstones moved to the sides of the field .Many Quaker graves have always been unmarked from choice even by the most wealthy who preferred to be remembered by charitable endowments rather than grand tombstones.
