    There are trees growing in Rahan and Mucklagh Graveyards. There are a few old monuments in Rahan churchyard and the monuments are made out of stone. None of the monuments are decorated. No one is buried within the ruin of St Carthages church. There are two disused Graveyards in this district. They are situated in Lynally and Rahan. It is about twenty yeas since there was anyone buried in Lynally Graveyard. Nearly every family in this district have a plot in one of the Graveyards that is furthest away from them.
