What is recorded here
Graveyard or cemetery in Donore is a private burial ground opposite the main graveyard, with its own railings beside the Borora River. Even the map has to make the distinction of an Irish wedding invitation: close family this side, everyone else over there.
Private burial ground, c.1912, containing marble grave marker surrounded by cast-iron railings on concrete plinth.
This private burial ground, commemorating William Arthur Barnes (d. 1912) and Frances Georgina Barnes (d. 1922) of Westland House, has a curious setting on the south bank of the Borora River. It is opposite but outside the Church of Ireland graveyard. The combination of the cast-iron railings, concrete plinths and marble provides textural and visual contrast.
