This graveyard, with its handsome rubble stone walls and cut stone grave markers, makes an attractive roadside feature and is of both cultural and historic significance. It was immortalised by W. B. Yeats in his famous epitaph. The eleventh century high cross is of archaeological interest and the graveyard forms a picturesque composition with the early-nineteenth century church behind and spectacular views of Ben Bulben to the north.
