What is recorded here

Grave Yd. is a rectangular graveyard beside St Mary's church in County Louth, Ireland, where fragments of an earlier structure probably date to the beginning of the thirteenth century. At least two gravemarkers predate 1700, and architectural fragments still lie scattered among the burials. The place holds quiet evidence that people lived, died and shaped this ground long before modern records named it.
