Freestanding gable-fronted mausoleum, built c. 1860, to west. Pitched felt roof with limestone copings and eaves course. Rendered walls having render quoins. Oculi to front (east) and rear (west) with limestone surrounds. Pointed arch opening having cut limestone surround and cast-iron panelled door with raised lettering reading: 'Erected by Mrs Jane Keays Cork'.
This attractive mausoleum, erected to house the remains of the Keays family, is of a simple architectural appearance and forms an appealing feature in the grounds of the graveyard. The construction of this mausolea attest to high quality stone masonry, which is particularly evident in the fine carved detailing, including cut door surround that enhance the artistic value of the composition. The cast-iron door adds further interest to the building.
