The graveyard in Kilballyherberry is in County Tipperary, Ireland. It is a sub-rectangular site measuring 44 metres north-south and 37 metres east-west, enclosed by a late 18th or 19th-century stone wall. A gate in the east wall and a stile to the north provide entry, while a church occupies the northwest portion. Most headstones date from the 18th and 19th centuries, though a black marble stone dated 1982 stands before the gate and another black marble memorial lies in the southeast quadrant.
On ground sloping to SW in hilly terrain which is surrounded to the N, E and W by coniferous forestry and by meadow to the S where there is a small river valley. The church (TS061-041----) is located in the NW portion of the graveyard which is enclosed by a late 18th/19th-century stone wall. This sub-rectangular graveyard (dims. 44m c. N-S; 37m c.
