    I see now why there is a warning about danger from buildings in that graveyard given the state of the roof in the old church.The railings in the cemetery have been damaged by unwanted visitors from a big town over the years not all that far away.Thanks for the tour and again a lovely old graveyard.I live in Newbridge but it is in the Edinburgh area.The Curragh Racecourse cannot be all that far away from the Cemetery.A lovely place to live in away from the graveyard.

    This graveyard is probably owned by the Church or England or Ireland. It doesn't belong to a city council. Because of the danger caused by the crumbling ruins, groundkeepers can't carry out any work there. It will be difficult to get permission to knock down the ruins. Some complain about overgrowth, but there are always good reasons why.
