What is recorded here
Kellistown East graveyard stretches seventy-nine metres around a medieval church whose south wall still forms the southern boundary. A later church appeared to the north-west, suggesting the community kept returning to the same ground despite changing beliefs. The rectangular enclosure holds both buildings and whatever buried life accumulated between them.
A rectangular enclosure (map dims. c. 37m N-S; c. 79m E-W) with the medieval church (CW008-038001-) in the S sector of the graveyard, the S wall of the church forming the S boundary of the graveyard. A later, probably 19th century, church was built to the NW of the earlier church.
