What is recorded here
The graveyard in Milltown Britton is in County Tipperary, Ireland. The first map to mark the graveyard appeared in 1840, when its oval boundary measured 74 metres north to south and 55 metres east to west. By 1906 the same boundary had faded from active use, and no stones or markers remain visible on the grassy ground. The church that belonged to this graveyard stood in the eastern quarter of the site.
On flat ground in very gently undulating terrain, under grass. Oval enclosure (TS077-020002-) (diam. 74m N-S; 55m E-W) hachured and called 'Grave Yard' on 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map, however, by the 1906 ed. it appears to be disused, as indicated on this map. There is no visible trace of any headstones or upright stones indicating the graveyard. The site of the church (TS077-020001-) is indicated on the 1906 ed. OS 6-inch map in the E quadrant.
