    The artistry of the stonework is just astonishing. Also, although it is course a very formal writing style on the headstones I was intrigued to see the word “Lyeth” in place of lies. A last vestige of Middle English and Early Modern English. Such an encapsulation of history in these beautiful memorials.

    It’s a beautiful old Churchyard..Some of those old headstones are really beautiful.I love the ones with the carvings on they must have taken days to do. Our new ones will be faceless slabs in no time .I don’t think they will last seventy years let alone as long as these or soome that date back even further.I should think there’s burials in there from Tudor times ,even before..Depending on how old the church is.Thank you for taking us with you..Love n Light 🥰

    Thank you Sue. I did enjoy this walk, all the beautiful headstones and designs on them were very different from the usual ones we have seen. That pauper's memorial was so moving as you read out the names and ages of some, that would have been diffucult for you. It makes us stop and think how lucky we are that we woke up this morning, taking time to show our loved ones we care. That memorial certainly was an eye opener. Take care and bless you 💕🇦🇺

    The many subtle differences between an Irish cemetery and an American one never ceases to amaze me. The nearest to the true "Irish style" I've seen here in the States were graves I frequented when I lived in upstate New York for 3 and a half years. I would often go to St. Paul's cemetery in Oswego, NY to visit the grave of the Reverend Father Michael Barry. He has a MASSIVE high cross befitting a priest who was born in County Cork, Ireland. It was truly a marvel to see and the crashing waves of lake Ontario below always added to the mystic nature of the place. This was another wonderful video, Sue! Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

    Beautiful cemetery with the unusual bust of Christ and the sad but deserving memorial to the people of the paupers grave . way back in years past people were buried here in paupers graves but you could pay a £1 and a shilling (a guinea) to have your name put onto a gravestone at the side . these were known as guinea graves but if you couldn't pay your death went unmarked . Thank you Serenity Sue for another beautiful walk . Rest in peace all who slumber there x

    What a lovely cemetery. It's so sad that Sir Walter Raleigh stole the church from the Friars. He also led a party of soldiers to quash the Munster uprising. He stole lands and properties from Munster families. He was a boastful and cruel man. Elizabeth 1st was in love with him and enabled his many misdeeds. He also brought tobacco to Europe for the 1st time, not to be celebrated. James 1st had him executed for treason.
    The story of babies, children, and other unnamed adults is heartbreaking. So good to see a memorial in their honour. They deserve to be remembered. Great video, as always.

    Sue, you probably already know this. But take a photo and turn it to 'negative'. Helps to read worn writing. I did it at Mellifont Abbey and was pleasantly surprised with what I found. It was passed on to the Dublin Museum who didn't realise it was there. Love the videos by the way.

    Great video Sue and GV. This cemetery is huge! The old section is fascinating, so are the Abby ruins. My hearing is not too good anymore, did you say, Sir Walter Raleigh had something to do with its destruction in the 1500s? This is the first time I have seen the stations of the cross in a cemetery, cool. The monument to those buried in paupers graves was very moving. Is the paupers section that field off to the side? Thank you very much again Sue, and GV, for a great walking tour. Take care.

    Here in the US it isn't common to see more than one name on a stone, unless it is a mother and child that died during childbirth. I like the idea, it conserves space, and keeps families together forever.
