What is recorded here
St Patrick's church in County Meath claims a buried life because a 1381 cartulary for St. Michael's priory of Llanthony Secondo gave it that name. The field still bends around the stone like a bowl holding water, yet no wall, gate or row of markers remains for the dead to be named.
St Patrick's church (ME027-038001-) is described as having its own churchyard and to be located N of St. Cianán’s church (ME027-037003-) in the cartulary of St. Michael’s priory (ME027-038011-) of Llanthony Secondo, dated 1381 (Bradley 1980-1, 40-51). Apart from a field boundary curving around the church NE-SE-S c. 10-20m distant there is no evidence of an enclosure or graveyard.
