    There are many crosses and monuments in it. the oldest dates of some of them being; Patrick McKeily who died in 1772, and Patrick Landy who died in 1775. There is one very old tombstone, but no one can understand the writing on it, and the date on it is 1019.
    Some of the crosses are ornamented with angels. There are some of the crosses made of wood, and the rest are made of stone.
    There is a new church erected in Mosstown graveyard about a year but it is very small.
