What is recorded here

Under hazel forest c. 30m ESE of ‘St Mac Duagh’s church’ (CL006-023001-). A graveyard is indicated as a small subrectangular enclosure (c. 40m N–S; c. 20m E–W) and named ‘Grave Yard (Disused)’ on the 1915 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. It is defined by some intermittent grassed over stone spreads (Wth 3–4m; H 0.2–0.4m) which appear to mark its enclosing line. No obvious grave markers were noted in the interior. Grant (2015) noted that no clear location is shown for the graveyard on the OS maps. Two fields are marked on the 1915 ed. but it is unclear if they were intended to indicate the graveyard. They show no clear evidence of burials on the ground surface. The fields in question form part of a larger network of fields around the church (ibid.).
