What is recorded here
Moss has swallowed the circular wall at Clogher, yet the narrow western entrance still frames the ruined foundation of the Fallon vault. Bryan Fallon established the ground in 1752, but the family departed for County Galway around 1815 with the commemorative plaque, abandoning the stones to collapse into the hillside. The site may overlay the medieval parish church of Cloonygormican, meaning human hands have shaped this exact spot for worship and burial since at least the fourteenth century.
On a bluff overlooking a N-S stream to the E and S. Baslick church (RO021-083001-) is within a subcircular graveyard (dims c. 52m N-S; c. 37m E-W) defined by a masonry wall that had been defined by an iron railing in the early 19th century (Lewis 1837, vol. 1, 188).
