Graveyard

Why this matters

A local ancient tomb; wider significance not recorded.

What is recorded here

Located on a slight bluff in the valley of the N-S Corock River, with an arm of the meandering river c. 80m to the W. The parish church of Ballingly (WX040-049001-) is within a rectangular enclosure (dims 45m E-W; 40m N-S) defined by field banks on all sides except the N where there is a scarp. There is no evidence of burials now but even c. 1840 there were very few graves visible, according to John O’Donovan (O’Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 215). The site of Lady's Well is c. 100m to the N.
