    little over 100 years ago, and replaced about 30 years ago by a new church a few hundred yards distant. The walls of the old church were used in building a new school. There is no ancient tomb or monument in either of those graveyards. None of the tombstones or headstones is more than 100 years old. In the catholic graveyard there are several trees, ash, chestnut and whitethorn.
