  1. An Old Churchyard

    Share Share Post
    There was a church and a churchyard in Brabstown situated on Graces' land within one field of the Brabstown road and it was near Saint Margarets well. There was nobody buried there for the last one hundred and fifty years.
    A good deal of bones were dug up there when it was ploughed from time to time. There is no trace of it now.
    A few years ago Graces ploughed and because of that they lost some of their cattle. Now they use as grazing for animals.
