What is recorded here

Saint Catherine's Cemetery at Clonminch, opened in 1852, is bounded by random rubble wall with tooled capping and cast-iron gates. Varied grave markers and obelisk stone monuments and cast-iron railings throughout graveyard.
The date and importance of this graveyard is apparent by the large number of elaborately shaped grave markers and the fact that it is still used today. Inscription to stone plaque on wall reads: 'This plot was granted by the Earl of Charleville to the Rector and Church Wardens of the Parish of Tullamore as a graveyard and was solemnly opened for the burial of the dead on the 1st day of March A.D. 1852 by the Reverend Edward F. Berry Rector.'

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
