Kilbride Burying Gd.

Graveyard

What is recorded here

Kilbride Burying Gd. is a circular graveyard in County Roscommon, Ireland, holding a parish church on rock outcrop towards the bottom of an E-facing slope. Its drystone wall encloses about fifty metres of ground where a round-headed window head still stands beside shallow quarries cut outside to the north, east and south. The place feels like a small sharp edge of the county, with stone, slope and silence doing the work of memory.
