    There is one disused graveyard in this locality. It is in the downland of Haroldstown. People remember burials taking place there.
    Some local people have certain graveyards to be buried in.They often go miles to be buried with their relations. There are no crosses made of wood or iron in the Hacketstown graveyard. There are a great many trees growing in each graveyard. .
