Flat cemetery in Edmondstown (farbill By.)

Flat cemetery

What is recorded here

Flat cemetery in Edmondstown (farbill By.) marks burial sites inside gently undulating pasture, while Tober Lastragh keeps its older water nearby. It escaped both the 1837 and 1913 survey maps, suggesting that even official drawing tools looked through the place rather than at it. The absence is not empty; it is a reminder that some deaths stopped being displayed long before they stopped mattering.
Situated in gently undulating pasture. Not depicted on the 1837 OS 6-inch map or the revised 1913 ed. OS 25-inch map. Holy well (WM020-042----) known as 'Tober Lastragh' lies within the northern area. Monument is described in SMR file as a ‘flat cemetery’ containing ‘burial sites’ (NMI Index). Monument is not visible on Digital Globe aerial photography. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 05 July 2019
