What is recorded here
Indicated is a rectangular graveyard beside the parish church of Rosinver, close to the NW corner of Lough Melvin in County Leitrim. Masonry walls enclose about fifty metres east-west and thirty-five metres north-south, marking a small dead place in an undulating living landscape. The area may have served local burial and memory for generations, while the lake and sky remained witnesses above the stones.
