Graveyard

What is recorded here

No wall, stone or ditch remains to mark the Grave Yard near Milltown, only a name on an 1840 map and the later admission that even that had vanished. The field is smooth pasture above shallow limestone, the kind of ground where farming and forgetting move together. Whatever lay there was leveled between the two surveys, leaving behind a bracketed phrase and a clean place for grass.
The graveyard at Corcomroe Abbey (CL003-029002-) (int. dims. 50m NNW-SSE; 45m ENE-WSW) is enclosed by a modern stone wall surrounding the church. The burials are in kerbed rectangular plots with headstones dating to the 18-20th centuries. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Mary Tunney Date of upload: 21 April 2015
