    There are ruins of an old church in Churchtown graveyard. It is about six and a half miles from Mullingar. There are a lot of trees growing in it.
    Baile na Mona is a very old graveyard. It is not very big. There are no trees in it. Unbaptised children are buried here. There is one wooden cross in it. Baile no Mona is so called because it is near Kilpatrick bog. It is also round.
