Graveyard

What is recorded here

Grave Yard is a rectangular graveyard beside Mulhussy castle in County Meath, Ireland. It holds a church or chapel, three headstones and some grave-markers within an earthen bank, hedge, stone wall remains and a wide fosse. The place may belong to a moated site, giving it the air of a old defended home rather than an ordinary burial ground.
Situated on a level landscape, c. 200m W of Mulhussy castle (ME049-012----). The church or chapel (ME049-011----) is within a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 45m NW-SE; c. 35m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank and hedge at SE, a wide fosse or moat (Wth of top c. 5m; D c. 2m) at SW and NW and the remains of a stone wall at NE. There are three headstones and some grave-markers (FitzGerald 1892). The church and graveyard may be within a moated site (ME049-011002-). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 9 April, 2015
