What is recorded here
Grave Yard stands on elevated ground south of a public road in County Limerick, overlooking the land in every direction. A rough stone wall, partly broken and patched with cement, encloses the oval space where the ivy-clad remains of Tuogh church still sit at the centre. Headstones from the late 18th century and vaulted tombs from the 19th century mark the places where people were laid to rest, while the graveyard remains in use and maintained today.
Situated on elevated ground immediately S of a public road, with good views in all directions. The graveyard is a sub-oval area (diam. c. 50m) accessed directly from the public road. It is enclosed by a mortared rough-hewn stone wall (H c. 0.7m), ivy covered and dilapidated in places and patched with cement blocks. At the centre are the ivy-clad remains of Tuogh church (LI015-031001-). The graveyard is still in use and maintained. The earliest headstones noted date to the late 18th century. A group of 19th century vaulted tombs are located in NE and SE quadrant of the graveyard.
