What is recorded here

Aglishcormack Grave Yard holds a disused church and scattered stones inside a low oval bank on a gentle Limerick slope. The northern wall of the church has become part of the graveyard boundary, while a shallow L-shaped ditch marks a smaller square area among frequent flat stones. Cattle may still walk the pasture above them, unaware that human hands shaped the bank, ditch and buried wall for worship and death.
