What is recorded here

Kilcrea Graveyard sits abandoned beside the Malahide estuary, its overgrown grass swallowing the plain rectangular building that still stands within the concrete wall. The east gable and side walls remain visible through the vegetation, while the entrance requires crossing a drainage ditch to reach the opening in the east wall. No longer used for burial, the place has returned to wild growth, preserving the quiet shape of a community that stopped coming decades ago.

Situated by a roadside near Malahide estuary. Within the graveyard is a plain rectangular building with the E gable and side walls still standing (DU012-016001-). The sub-rectangular is bounded by a modern concrete wall erected in the early 1990s (L 45m, Wth 30m). Accessed via an opening in the east wall across a drainage ditch. The graveyard is no longer used for burial and is extremely overgrown. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 16 January 2015
