Description

Graveyard with various cut-stone markers, post-1700-present, retaining some medieval markers, post-1200.

Appraisal

A picturesque graveyard significantly enhancing the group and setting value of Saint Canice's Cathedral. A substantial collection of cut-stone markers display very high craftsmanship while a number predating the eighteenth century form an important element of the archaeological heritage of Kilkenny.
