What is recorded here

Corbally Burial Ground is a church in Edmondstown (farbill By.), County Westmeath, Ireland. Situated on a low ridge in pasture with good views of the surrounding landscape, the site lies within the centre of the Corbally graveyard. A 1983 description identified a possible church site as a roughly rectangular area defined by the collapsed remains of the west, north and south walls, with a stony mound appearing to be the remains of the west wall. Traces of the north and south walls were also present, while any surviving portions of the east wall were obscured by dense scrub, and occasional rough stones and small boulders marked burials in the vicinity.
