    Grave Yards
    There are four grave yards around Oughterard. One in Glann, one is Glengowla, one in beannreamar and the biggest one in Killeuimmim. It is called St buimmins grave yard. It is about a quarter of a mile down the Galway road. There is the ruins of an old church in it. Saint buimmin the patron Saint of the Parish of Oughterard is supposed to be buried in this church.
    There are trees and bushes growing in this grave yard, but they are being cut down now.
