Graveyard

What is recorded here

In pastureland on the N shore of Lough Nakilla. This roughly oval-shaped graveyard (c. 45m E-W; c. 20-30m N-S), now disused, is bounded along its E half by a drystone wall. The original entrance is at SSW. On inspection, the interior was heavily overgrown. Where visible, burials were marked by simple headstones aligned E-W. A medieval church (GA035-048001-) occupies the NW quadrant. A possible leacht (GA035-048004-) is also associated and a holy well (GA035-048003-) lies c. 15m to the SW. A modern rectangular graveyard adjoins the site to the W. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 17 April 2023
