Appraisal

The Roman Catholic cemetery at Drumconrath contains many carved grave markers, including several Celtic Revival high crosses, which are of artistic interest. The setting of the cemetery is enhanced by the religious statuary at its centre, the cast-iron gate piers and the wrought-iron gates.
