Old Burying Ground

Graveyard

What is recorded here

Muchgrange holds a thirty-five-metre square of death where a ruined church still stands at the centre. The geometry suggests early medieval intention, yet the graveyard outlived the building and kept receiving the dead. That continuation is the anomaly: sanctity abandoned the structure but refused to leave the soil.
Roughly square shaped graveyard marked 'Old Burying Ground' on 1835 'OS 6-inch' map (map dims. L c. 35m; Wth c. 34m) with church remains (LH009-002001-) in centre. Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 13 March 2012
