“In the townland of Kill is a graveyard not used now.”
In the townland of Kill is a graveyard not used now. The landlord of the place was a Captain Kelly. He afterwards built ( on the otherside of the road leading to Killimor) Longford Lodge which still stands - the Kellys sold it about 25 years ago.
The gate piers of Longford lodge is built of tombstones taken from Kill graveyard. The stones in the piers look like tombstones - being about 4 1/2 ins thick. If any names are on the tombstones the names are turned in as they cannot be seen on the outside.(continues on next page)- Informant
