What is recorded here

Grave Yard holds two centuries of Galway deaths beside a central church, marked by inscribed stones and reused church fragments. Evergreen trees line the path to the building while a concrete wall keeps the trapezoidal ground separate from the pasture. The dead have crowded this small corner for generations, turning broken church pieces into new identity for people whose names no longer appear on stone.

In pastureland, in the SE corner of a large field. This graveyard, roughly trapezoidal shaped in plan (40m E-W; 39m N-S), is enclosed by a modern concrete wall. Access is via a gateway at E. A pathway lined with evergreen trees leads to an almost centrally located church (GA098-104001-). Inscribed headstones date from the 18th to the 20th centuries. Numerous uninscribed grave-markers are also scattered about it and in some cases architectural fragments from the church have been reused to mark graves.
