Graveyard

What is recorded here

Indicated is a graveyard in County Meath where the parish church of Tyllanoge or Tullaghanoge still stands inside a subrectangular enclosure about 48m NW-SE and 32m NE-SW. It faces south-west on a gentle slope, giving its dead a warm horizon and its living a clear view of the sky. In the late 17th century it was not yet enclosed, so the boundary between church, field and funeral may have felt less like a wall and more like a breath.
Situated on a gentle SW-facing slope. The parish church of Tyllanoge or Tullaghanoge (ME030-014----) is within a subrectangular graveyard (dims c. 48m NW-SE; c. 32m NE-SW) defined by masonry walls, but it was not enclosed in the late 17th century according to the Dopping (1682-5) and Royal (1693) visitations (Ellison 1972, 11).
