What is recorded here

Convent of Mercy cemetery, established c.1890. Concrete path divides cemetery into quarters. Crucifixion statue to northern end of cemetery. Cast-iron grave markers. Site is enclosed by cast-iron railings.
This cemetery has been used by the Sisters of Mercy since the late nineteenth century. It contributes to the social and religious history of Ballinamore and is part of a group of ecclesiastical structures in the town. The use of cast-iron as a material for the grave markers instead of stone is of technical interest.
