What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Kildare remains an active burial place inside a modern stone wall, though the earliest legible markers date to the 18th century. The southern sector once held a church according to the 1838 Ordnance Survey map, but no surface trace of that building remains visible. The gentle slope and unbroken pasture suggest a continuous relationship between the living community and the dead rather than a abandoned relic.

On a very gentle NW-slope in gently undulating pastureland. A square area (dims. c. 40m NE-SW; c. 40m NW-SE) is enclosed by a modern stone wall and is still used for burial. The earliest legible grave-markers date to the 18thC. There is no visible surface trace of a church (KD003-008001-) which was contained in the S sector, according to the 1st. ed. (1838) of the OS 6-inch map. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
