  1. Old Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    In the parish of Straide, there are four graveyards. One of them is near the church. Another one is about a quarter of a mile away and another in Twomore about two miles away from Straide Church.
    There was a little church in the townland of Ash in which the Moores of Moore Hall are buried. The old oak coffin is still there. It cannot be seen on account of the monument erected on it but if a little stone is thrown through a small hole in the monument, the (???) of the coffin can be heard.
