What is recorded here
Indicated is a sub-rectangular graveyard in County Louth, Ireland, measuring roughly 78m east-west and 41m north-south. A road bounds its west side while fields claim the other three, and the remains of a medieval church sit at its east edge. The stones hold names and dates, but the church ruins suggest worship continued long after the building fell. People may have kept coming here because the graves themselves became the marker, the church no longer needed.
Sub-rectangular shaped graveyard (map dims. c. 78m E-W; c. 41m N-S) bounded by the road on W side and fields on other three sides. Remains of medieval church (LH018-014001-) in E. An index to the inscriptions in this graveyard has been posted on the web at the following internet address (accessed 5 July 2012): http://www.jbhall.freeservers.com/dromin_inscriptions_page_2.htm
