  1. Old Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    There are two graveyards in our parish, one in Kildorough, and one in Castlerahan. One belongs to the Church of Ireland, and the other is the Roman-Catholic one, they are in use still. There is none of them round, and there is none of them in ruins.
    The graveyard in Kildorough is flat, and Castlerahan graveyard is sloped, but we do not know in which way it slopes. There are a lot of trees growing in both graveyards. Beech trees grow in Kildorough graveyard, we do not know what kind of trees grow in Castlerahan graveyard. There are no disused graveyards in our parish.
