What is recorded here

Graveyard (c. 42m N-S; c. 42m E-W) on S side of monastic complex at Bridgetown Priory (14381). Enclosed by limestone rubble walls (H c. 1.4m); area almost entirely occupied by extensive dumps of stone rubble. Traces of low stone walls visible within graveyard probably remains of burial vaults. Section of S wall of graveyard stands 3.5m high, indicating former structure here; W wall of graveyard built on foundations of earlier wall. Interior of monastic complex, especially the church, long used for burial (see 14381). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
