Graveyard

What is recorded here

Ballyorgan Church stands in the centre of a rectangular graveyard in County Limerick, where a post-1700 stone wall still holds the dead close to the living road. The wall has no record of the hands that stacked its stones, but those hands may have carried grief, pride or fear into every joint. The church remains the heart of the place, not a later addition forced upon it.
