    About on hundred and twenty years ago, a lot of stones were taken from the church to build a mill in Borris-in-Ossory. The mill did not get on well so it has to be given up. The people said that the mill did not succeed because the stones that built it were taken from the church.
    The name of the graveyard is, "An Reilig".
