Slievemore Old Graveyard Headstones

This old graveyard is labelled "Slievemore Grave Yard" on the nineteenth century ordnance survey maps.  It is located on the southern lower flank of Mt. Slievemore, just below the Deserted Village of over 80 single-roomed stone cottages that were abandoned during the famine.  There are also many megalithic tombs in this area.

In the graveyard are what appear to be the ruins of an old church.  This relatively small graveyard is full, and most of the graves do not have legible headstones.  There is a large (main) cemetery on the other side of the road, with a new cemetery adjacent to it.
