Overview

Why it was built
The record classifies graveyard/cemetery — Screen as graveyard/cemetery. It does not safely state the first owner's purpose beyond that use, so this first account does not borrow a story from a namesake.
People and work
No architect, builder, owner, worker or resident is named in the saved wording. Those people remain unknown until the linked official record or another source identifies them.
How it changed
The saved wording does not establish particular rebuilding, extensions, damage or changes of use. No visible feature is assigned a date without supporting evidence.
What survives
The public record still identifies the place as graveyard/cemetery. Its saved point marks the building or centre of its recorded area, but the stock wording does not provide a room-by-room condition report.
Why it mattered
graveyard/cemetery — Screen matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: A graveyard representing an important component of the ecclesiastical heritage of County Wexford [SMR WX033-008002-] with a collection of markers signed by Miles Brien (----) of Rathduff; and James Byrne (----) and Patrick Byrne (----) of Clone exemplifying the Irish Churchyard Sculpture tradition in County Wexford (Longfield 1974, 2). This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
