Graveyard in Ballyfoyle

Graveyard

What is recorded here

According to Carrigan (1905, 466), in 'Kilfarney "Wood" is an ancient churchyard called Rillig, in which human bones have been often upturned, though the place now presents scarcely any appearance of a cemetery. The fence separating Kilfarney from Oldtown runs, in a slight very curious bend, right through the original Rilllig, a part only of which it leaves in the former townland, and the remainder, resembling a small irregular mound, in the later'. The precise location of the graveyard and its associated church (KK014-082001-) is unknown within the townland. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 14 March 2016
