What is recorded here

On E side of road. Rectangular graveyard (c. 40m ENE-WSW; c. 30m NNW-ESE) with ruin of C of I parish church of Carrigleamleary (14705) forming part of N boundary. Much overgrown and no longer in use; headstones, in poor repair, date from mid-18th to late 19th century. Much of graveyard now used as dump. Earlier site of parish church c. 500m to S (14401); moved to present location c. 1715 (see 14705) and graveyard unlikely to be much older than this date.
