Grave Yard

Graveyard

What is recorded here

Grave Yard stands on a natural rise in County Offaly, its surviving south church wall guarding headstones from the 18th and 19th centuries. A 17th-century house sits to the west, while the faded north wall footings disappear into grass. The graveyard feels less like a dead place than a paused conversation, where people still pass beside stones that have watched the countryside change for generations.
Situated on top of a natural rise in undulating countryside with 17th-century house (OF044-011001-) to the W. Only the S wall survives of this nave and chancel church (OF044-011002-) with the wall footings of the N wall barely visible. The church is located in the centre of a graveyard which contains 18th/19th-century headstones enclosed by a modern stone wall. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
