Architectural fragment in Garristown

Architectural fragment

What is recorded here

Garristown graveyard holds five reused rainwater chutes from the original medieval church. They mark graves now, turning rainy noise into dead identity. One chute still stands southeast of the church, large enough to suggest the building once caught storm water like a living thing.
SE of Garristown church (DU003-011001-) is a large rainwater church which probably came from the original medieval church, one of five rainwater chutes reused as grave-markers in the graveyard.
