    Freestanding Church of Ireland church, built 1825-7, now ruinous, having three-stage west tower, two-bay nave, lower chancel with single-bay single-storey projections to side elevations of latter. No roof, moulded dressed limestone copings and eaves course, and with crenellations and pinnacles to tower. Coursed dressed limestone walls to nave and tower, with cut limestone quoins. Snecked rusticated limestone to chancel and chancel projections, with cut limestone plinth. Tower has cut limestone pilasters to corners, cut limestone string courses between stages and corbel table to top stage. Pointed arch window openings with cut stone voussoirs and sills, being double-light with limestone bar tracery to nave, and single-light with louvred timber fittings to tower. Triple-light east window with hood moulding and geometric bar tracery. Pointed arch door opening to tower, with raised cut limestone surround and apparently replacing taller pointed-arch opening with dressed stone voussoirs. Shouldered-arch door openings to chancel projections. Graveyard, with pitched roof mausoleum to north-west of church. Elaborate mausoleum to south-west of church. Rubble stone boundary walls to site, with cut sandstone square-profile piers with plinths and caps and decorative double-leaf wrought-iron gates with spearhead detail.
    Church of Ireland graveyard located 200 metres north of the River Suir.
    The site contains a derelict church (built 1825), a ruined medieval church and several mausolea.
    Anner castle is a 19th-century Neo-Gothic construction, with evidence for an earlier building. This earlier structure was not in existence at the time of the civil survey of 1654-56. It is however visible in its earlier T-shape form (Ballina House) on the first edition O.S. map. The land had been in the ownership of the Mandeville family for 330 years having been acquired by Ambrose Mandeville in 1683 (whose ancestors resided in the nearby Ballydine Castle of the same parish since 1325). It was bought from the Mandeville family by the present owner in 2013.
    Testing has confirmed that the castle was built on the remains of Ballina House which was most likely built in the early 1700’s.
    A section of cobbled floor and a rectangular stone-lined pit belonging to the earlier phase of building were uncovered. No remains earlier than this phase were found. The finds throughout the project were contemporary with the final use of the house, at the time of the fire in 1926

    Silent lay the dead, save for their names, names that live on, generation after generation, the only true immortality. But then, sometimes the line ends, there are no more generations and then there are only the names. Even memory has a time to live and then to die, dust blows in the wind and is gone. Stone on stone makes a Temple, but Sacred Places need Souls to keep them sacred. Stone on stone falls as surely as the living and the names. The grass grows on, covering the disturbed earth, trees grow tall in the neglect, the wild seeks always to return to the places of Man. Nature, the only true immortality. Walk softly, you who venture in these places, the neglected Holy and the forgotten graves, walk softly and do no harm, comes the night, the favor may be returned.

    The mausoleum that you discovered in Killaloan cemetery, about two miles from Clonmel, Co. Tipperary,
    was erected by the Osbourne Beauclerk family, Dukes of St. Albans, England. Nearby Annerville Hse., was their Irish seat, owning all the lands around, through which the river Suir flows. Sir Charles Beauclerk, curator of the King Charles II, museum in London, is one of the last remaining members of that particular line. He does not use the title, and is a well-known author. The mausoleum is empty as, due to some foolish youths in the 1960s, broke into it , thinking that they were going to find fabulous treasure there! The local authority immediately removed the coffins from their resting niches and interred them in the cemetery outside. Perhaps the bones seen in the film are those of a wild animal that
    wandered in there to die, as the local authority would not leave human remains lying around. And, of course, the coffins of the super wealthy would have been made to last, especially overground. That is a very ancient place and would have had a pre-Reformation church building there prior to the old one, now standing abandoned. Catholics continued to bury their dead there, resulting in a Protestant area and a Catholic area, divided by a hedge. That was a common practice after the Reformation, a convenient
    "us" and "them" arrangement.

      @@SerenitySueGraveyards Thank you, Sue for your acknowledgement, and glad you enjoyed it. I was looking at a documentary on BBC about two years ago by Sue Worseley on King Charles II and just coming to the end , she visited that museum to him in London, and met the curator, Charles Beauclerk. Of course, I knew immediately who he was by the name "Beauclerk". I sent him an email, enquiring if he were related to the St. Alban's Annerville House family. He replied immediately and asked about Annerville and how it was getting on as he had spent many summer holidays there as a teenager. We had many long chats, as he is a most unassuming person, and was delighted to meet somebody from the area as he was writing a book about the family and needed some info. etc. I put him in touch with the county museum and library where the photo album of his ancestors is deposited. By the way, the river Anner meets the Suir just a few yards from where you and friend were standing. Do you know the song: "She Lived Beside the Anner"? Lovey song by Charles Kickham and you'll find it on TH-cam. Did you visit Clonmel and its beautiful surroundings. Or, as it is known in old Irish: "Cluain Geal Meala Na Feile." Na Feile means Of The Welcomes. Happy hunting!

    That church's ruins are spectacularly beautiful. Heart wrenchingly so. I'd love to have a wee house built inside of it. What a beautiful place. The rabbit is indeed a strange thing. That is most definitely a domesticated dwarf rabbit. I used to have 198 rabbits back in the mid 1990s. The bad Smell is probably the rabbit urine.

      Thanks Timothy, that's my dream to build a house from a church ruins but I think my chance has passed me by, it was a must smell in there, I had a bunny very like this fella, he was like a pet dog, he had a lead and loved walking around, as he got older he'd walk himself in the garden and come when called, he unfortunately injured his back and became paralysed but I kept him even though vet wanted to put him down, I used to have to bath hum a few times a day to keep him clean and he stayed a happy little bunny for ages until he died❤💔

    Hi Sue! This has to be one of the most photogenic ruined churches in Ireland (and that's saying something). I wasn't sure what the vaulted structure could be but by braving its passageways (and resident rabbit) you solved the mystery. I loved the angel carving on the 1760s headstone. 🇦🇺 🇮🇪

    I hope "Irish Eyes" was 'smilin''. Seems to be two cemeteries, now & then, if you will. There's something to be said about burial &/or cremation, those above burials often seem to fall into disrepair and it is so very sad. I often see the table tombs where the body is in the ground, tomb above. Another great video Sue, the rabbit was beautiful.

    What is it about rabbits and cemeteries? The moment I saw the little bunny as you were going into the crypt, I knew someone would get a fright before the video was over. Many, many years ago, on a sunny autumn day, I was walking around the small country cemetery where my maternal grandparents and great grandparents are buried. I was listening to the dry leaves crunch underfoot as I looked at the various stones. It's a relatively "new" cemetery by Irish standards as the oldest grave only dates to 1895. I stopped in front of a companion monument (double-stone for a husband and wife) and heard a rustling on the other side of the tombstone. I thought someone was getting up before judgment day, but it was only a small cottontail that I frightened as much as he did me. We both went quickly went our separate ways. After my heart slowed back down, I had a good chuckle.

      As old churches go in Ireland, it would not be classed as "ancient", but probably from the early
      19th century. You'll be glad to know that on deconsecration as a Christian place of worship, all artefacts were removed and not allowed to rot there. These, including a beautifully carved wooden pulpit, windows, etc., were removed to Old St. Mary's, Church of Ireland, Mary St., Clonmel, and are deposited there.

    What a wonderful graveyard.My guess is the rabbit is either an escapee from a local garden or someone put him there because they did not want him anymore .Thinking the walls would at least protect him from foxes and he would have places to sleep.Which he has.Poor thing,but he has plenty of grass and dandylions to eat so he won’t get hungry.I am sure he’s fine !looks healthy enough and he’s been there long enough not to go to people..The Crypt was really cool .I think your right it does look like there are some remains in there.Because it only has a gate entrance the air would be in there all the wile and the coffins and the skeletons will disintegrate over time.It’s different to being buried or in an enclosed crypt.It was beautifully constructed inside with the arches..it always amazes me how they create those ,and it looks so gothic too.Both inside and out ..There was some amazing old headstones there too .Thank you for the adventure ..Love n Light to you both 🥰

    Years ago I went with a neighbor to an old cemetery way out of town, she was looking for an old relative for family tree info. Way in the back, we found an open hole...so we went to look. About 6 ft. down was about a third of a blue coffin. No fresh dirt anywhere, no tire tracks...nothing. It was as if they lowered the casket, started to fill in and just quit. We decided to report it in the nearest town. WE got the 3rd degree. Why were you there, who are you ladies, where are you from etc. etc. We finally got the deputy to go back with us (in seperate cars, he followed us). When we showed him...he came unglued. Soon there were people coming from all over. We were then told to leave and not to come back. A city councilman even followed us back to the FM road and watched us turn and start home. It was all very strange...we never did go back, and we never did receive any info. about anything. (they had our names, id, drivers license, car plates etc. Talk about feeling creepy...we sure did.

    One of the coolest stones I ever found was in an old Quaker cemetery in Pennsylvania near the Brandywine battlefield (American war of independence). It’s simply stamped “ye hessian, 1777”. I also found a primitive stone for “Adam who dyed 1704”. 1704 in America is pretty old! There’s a lot of colonial graveyards around the Philadelphia region. I found the grave of the man who rung the liberty bell when we gained independence from England. Just really neat historical graves. My mother in law and myself spend hours scouring these old graveyards. My kids love it too because they love history.

Ballydine Castle, in Tipperary, no longer exists (although it was pretty large) but there must be family graves somewhere,

    What an amazing place did you just come on it by accident. The window was just amazing and the tiles on the floor still there. The plant with the variegated leaves is cyclamen it would make a lovely show when it flowers. I've a sister in law that lives in Clonmel there is St Patrick's Well on the outskirts you can see the water bubbling up its a lovely spot. I hope that rabbit doesn't get taken by a fox it seemed pretty tame really. A shame that vault is not closed off.
