Graveyard

What is recorded here

Indicated is a graveyard at the east end of a low ridge near the River Boyne, where a triangular walled area still holds two headstones, one marked 1770. The church of Mary Magdalene stands inside that grassy triangle, pointing east like a quiet finger toward the river. Whatever lives beneath the soil has not spoken back, but the stones remain, naming death and endurance without fear.
Situated at the E end of a low W-E ridge or spur with a NW-SE section of the River Boyne c. 85m to the NE. The church of Mary Magdalene (ME036-027----) is within a triangular grass-covered area (dims c. 80m WNW-ESE; c. 40m NNE-SSW) defined by masonry walls with the apex at E, but only two headstones, now in the church, survive. One has the incised date 1770. Archaeological testing (13E0456) by Donal Murphy c. 200m to the SSE produced no related material (excavations.ie 2013:111).
