What is recorded here

The graveyard in Loughkeen is in County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a slight rise in undulating countryside and surrounds the ivy-covered remains of a rectangular building made from uncoursed red sandstone rubble. Only the north, south and east walls survive, while a burial vault and dense overgrowth block entry to the interior. The irregular graveyard measures about 63 metres from northeast to southwest and 40 metres from northwest to southeast, and it contains eighteenth and nineteenth-century headstones.
