Cross Abbey Graveyard Headstones
This very old graveyard is situated on a hill in the grounds of the Cross Abbey ruins and is surrounded by the Atlantic ocean on three sides. It commands spectacular views of a beautiful sandy beach to the south-west, and several small islands (including Inishglora) about a mile away. It is just a few hundred yards west of the new Cross cemetery and a few more hundred yards from the old Belderra graveyard.
Most of the graves have no legible markers or the headstones are too old and weathered to be read.
Number of headstones: 60+ legible headstones
Date range: 1830 to 1975 (observed)
Recorded: all legible headstones photographed June 2013
