- Leck graveyard is situated a mile from Letterkenny. It contains the ruins of a church, with a graveyard around it.
The ruins of the church are plain to be seen.
The graveyard is in use as yet. Leck is a mixed burying ground for Catholics and Protestants. It is surrounded by walls with trees growing in it. It is not well looked after. It is overgrown with weeds and brambles, and you would scarcely see the paths.
Some of the old tombstones and crosses have fallen down. There is a new cemetery pretty convenient where people are buried also, especially patients from the mental hospitals.
