Description
Roman Catholic cemetery, established c.1920, with a variety of twentieth-century grave markers. Shrine to the Blessed Virgin Mary to south-western end. Cast-iron railings with stone gate piers, cast-iron gates and decorative cast- and wrought-iron arch.
Appraisal
This cemetery holds several interesting examples of earlier twentieth century Celtic revival grave markers. Located at the east end of the main street, it occupies a notable position in the streetscape. The decorative wrought and cast-iron arch over the entrance gates, and the cast-iron railings enhance the site.
