What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Limerick holds the ruins of Ballingarry church at its centre, a rectangular patch of dark earth fenced by a post-1700 stone wall. The graveyard stretches thirty metres north to south and fifty-two east to west, large enough for generations to lie beneath the grass but small enough that every step feels like walking through a memory. St Peter's and St. Paul's Well waits a short distance to the northeast, offering clean water beside the dead. People may have drawn from that well after burying their own, perhaps believing life and death shared the same local breath.

The medieval church ruins (LI049-086002-) of Ballingarry stands in centre of graveyard which consists of a rectangular-shaped area (approx. dims. 30m N-S x 52m E-W) enclosed by post-1700 stone wall. St Peter's and St. Paul's Well (LI049-108----) lies 125m to NE, enclosure (LI049-125----) 135m to WNW. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 31 July 2019
