Kyle Burial Ground

Graveyard

What is recorded here

Kyle Burial Ground remains in County Limerick, Ireland, a quiet detachd place tied to Camus and Monasternenagh since the twelfth century. It is not a grand cathedral or a busy town square, but a burial ground where ordinary life still left marks after churches and borders changed. That continuity is what makes it worthy of notice: people kept returning to the same ground long after the names around it shifted.
Westropp (1904-5, 432) recorded the following details about Camus Kyle; 'A detached part of Monasternenagh. The grange of Camus and Cellseanig were granted to Magio in 1185 (charter). Camus, in Killoc deanery, dedicated to St. Senan, 1410. "Capella de Camus spect ad mon de May," 1418 and 1615. Camus, in Krean, "parish,"1586 (Peyton, p.13) Site - A burial ground'.
