Grave Yard

Graveyard

What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Kildare holds eighteenth-century markers inside a wire fence beside a ruined church and forgotten castle. The D-shaped plot lies level among farm buildings, suggesting ordinary life continued around death for generations. Its preserved stones and abandoned church create a quiet chamber where memory, loss and human continuity still emerge from the soil.
In level pasture, surrounded by an extensive farm yard and outbuildings to S, W and N. A castle (KD030-002----) stood c. 75m to the N. A partially overgrown D-shaped area (diam. c. 34m NW-SE) with a straight SE side (l c. 58m) is enclosed mainly with a wire-and-post fence. A ruined church (KD030-002----) stands at the N end of the graveyard and legible grave markers date from the 18th-century. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 18 September 2013
