What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Galway holds a rectangular plot beside a medieval church, marked by one possible 18th-century slab and many 19th-century graves. The stone wall encloses the place, forcing entry through the SE corner as if the dead required a narrow gate rather than a broad road. That small boundary still shapes the visit, turning a quiet field into a room where time has been compressed into stone.

This rectangular graveyard (c. 58m NE-SW; c. 51m NW-SE) is associated with a medieval church (GA105-056001-). It is enclosed by a stone wall and access is gained at the SE corner. On inspection only one graveslab of possible 18th-century date was noted, beside the S wall of the church, all the rest all dated to the 19th century.
