What is recorded here

Mounthall holds a fifteen-yard square called the Burying Bush because a sceach still marks the dead. That small boundary between Cappanarra and Moonanelly turns an ordinary meadow into a place where forgetting becomes impossible. The bush does not need a chapel, road or memory lane; it keeps its own shape in the field.

Unlocated churchyard (LA011-015001-) within the townland of Mounthall situated according to Carrigan on the bounds of Cappanarra and Moonanelly which is measures no more than 15yds. Square. This graveyard is known as the 'Burying Bush' from a sceach that grows on site; the field containing the graveyard is known as the 'Burying Meadow' (Carrigan 1905, p. 151).
