Graveyard

What is recorded here

Grave Yard in County Meath holds Teltown church inside earthen banks near the Blackwater River. It preserves a cross-base, an inscribed stone and prehistoric rock-art, linking several ages in one small rectangle. The gate at the north still admits people to a place where older hands and newer prayers both remain visible.
Situated on a slight rise in the floodplain of the NW-SE Blackwater River, with a N-S section of the stream c. 230m to the W. The church of Teltown (ME017-031----) is within a rectangular graveyard (dims c. 53m E-W; c. 43m N-S) defined by earthen banks with external stone-facing, entered through a gate at N. The cross-base (ME017-031002-), cross-inscribed stone (ME017-031003-) and prehistoric rock-art (ME017-031004-) are within the graveyard. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 January, 2016
