Burying Ground

Near the top of a moderately steep E-facing slope in a housing estate. Signposted ‘15th Century Fitzgerald Graveyard.’ A well-maintained slightly raised circular area (diam. 22m; H 0.4-1m) is enclosed by a mortared stone wall with an entrance at NE. The interior contains table-tombs, flat slabs and headstones, and legible gravemarkers date to the 18th and 19th-century. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 09 October 2013

A 15th-century graveyard associated with the Fitzgerald family; significance lies in its historical and genealogical connections to a prominent local lineage.
