What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Kildare holds a ruined church and Fitzgerald tombs inside a mortared stone wall on a steep valley slope. Legible markers span the 18th to 20th centuries, while a small stream flows just north of the burials. The place preserves local death and memory beside living water.
