A monument erected over the burial place of the Batts of Ozier Hill House representing an important component of the early nineteenth-century built heritage of County Wexford with 'the reason for their burying in this spot…and not in the burial-ground at the Protestant Church [being] unaccountable' (Lord Walter FitzGerald in Memorials of the Dead in Ireland Volume VIII (1910), 184-5).
