What is recorded here
Dysart graveyard stretches forty metres through Louth soil, guarding the broken church at its heart. People buried there across centuries, their names lost but their bodies still anchoring the place. The church falls away while the graves remain, suggesting death itself outlasts the buildings built to witness it.
Rectangular shaped graveyard (map dims. c. 40m N-S; c. 34m E-W) with remains of church (LH018-035001-) just SE of centre.
