  1. Old Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    There is a graveyard in Castletara. The oldest headstone in it is dated for the year 1740. The name is unreadable.
    The Fays of Moynehall own the Vault. They were natives of Castletara.
    There is a tunnel from Mrs Tully's hill to the graveyard. A man went down to it. He found three steps down to it.
    He found an iron poor but he could not open it.
