    listtle is known. St. Ernon's Well, known as "Tubberarney" is near the old graveyard and from which, up to about thirty years ago, water was taken for healing purposes. It is now dried up.
    There can be seen outside the churchyard gate the solid fixed stone base of another cross (which has disappeared) and round which, up to recent years, coffins were carried at funerals before entering the graveyard.
    An old road (now closed) leading from Dundalk to the old town of Cabra is adjacent to the old graveyard.
