What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Kildare holds table-tombs and headstones spanning the 18th to 20th centuries inside a mortared stone wall, with a ruined church and mortuary chapel at its centre. It sits seventy metres south and down slope from the Carbury castle complex, a short walk from power and pride. The dead may have watched the castle rise and fall, steady beneath its changing masters.
