Appraisal
A graveyard contributing positively to the group and setting values of Saint Mary's Church (Saint Mary's New Ross) with at least one marker signed by Miles Brien (----) of Rathduff exemplifying the Irish Churchyard Sculpture tradition in County Wexford (fl. 15606005). NOTE: A group of markers commemorate the last members of the Tyndall family of nearby Oaklands House (see 15703401) including Lieutenant-Colonel Robert Tyndall (1874-1953).
