    Glandore Cemetery.
    Pyramid mausoleum and graveyard.
    An amazing find within the Pyramid and the adjoining mausoleum too. We discovered the door was open and take a closer look at this moss covered Mausoleum. Glandore is a stunningly picturesque village in Cork.

    Between 2:44-2:46 there's an orb that appears at a leaf at the middle right above the tombstone and floats behind it to disappear behind the statue on the left of the stone.

    As someone who volunteers to clean and conserve grave sites, I think it’s sad to see a cemetery in that state, especially when many of the burials are not that old. It seems like after the people were buried, they were forgotten. The vegetation will destroy those stones and monuments until they are eventually unreadable. But I suppose most of us are destined to be forgotten eventually.

      I know what you mean. I was just up in Connecticut Vermont Massachusetts New Hampshire, Maine and Pennsylvania and we stopped at some cemeteries that have my ancestors in them. The headstones are so hard to read that I couldn’t really get good pictures of them.

      Unfortunately, in many places, there are no county or town organizations or money to keep cemeteries picked up. Plus, I think vandals look for opportunities like this old cemetery to break headstones, push them over, etc. Then, too, many stones are very hard to read because they are not marble and the stone used (granite many times) does not hold up well to the elements. Wears away with time. Always so sad to me.

      @@SerenitySueGraveyards it looks like a recent headstone (not that old)
      My theory is that someone who maybe involved in military history had discovered Christina was laid to rest in this cemetery and put a request into “honours and medals” section of DVA (Department of Veterans Affairs), mind you this is what we refer this section and veterans affairs in Australia.
      Every serving veteran who has passed or was killed during their service are entitled to a military gifted plaque or headstone at no cost to the family or the person who requested this headstone.
      There are so many veterans out there across the commonwealth including our allied countries that don’t realised their loved ones are entitled to these plaques or headstones.
      I’m so glad she has been recognised for her service yet very sad she passed away at such a very young age.

    Thanks Sue for looking at this cemetery!
    The two mausoleums are very cool, and shows the natural process of decay.
    I have a story for you!
    There was a story I heard as a young man, about the worlds best escape artist being put in a room that was claimed to be escape proof.
    They told the man he had 30 minutes to try and escape from the room for a prize of $1000!
    He was put in the room, and he spent the entire 30 minutes checking the ceiling, the floor and all four walls for a way to escape.
    After 30 minutes he gave up and knocked on the door and said he gave up, to which the person who built the room, pushed the unlocked door open!
    So never forget to give the doorknob a check for being locked or not!

    We have a local pyramid crypt, Called Rucker's Tomb, after one of the founding families of Everett WA. Many years ago, we were hanging out at the cemetery, it used to be a thing to do to climb up to the top of the pyramid, (it was made of large blocks of stone, like big steps) and we noticed the door was open. The door was a huge slab of stone, but opened easily, with no creaking or ghostly noises. it was empty, the burials all being enclosed in the walls, and since we didn't have a flashlight (it was night, of course) we couldn't see any plaques. I believe it's still used as a family burial, with the last few Ruckers to be interred someday. It was built in probably the 1920s, Everett is a pretty new town, compared to your areas lol. Just a little story from years ago.

    Beautiful countyside.. all the greenery 🥰 Ireland is very beautiful land. My grandma said her, and her brother & father went to visit family, over there, even at age 12, around 1934, she remembered the beauty, said it was majestical 🦋 I miss her so much, she told me so many stories, she was very proud of her Irish heritage ☘ She would tell me so many Irish sayings/poems , I can't remember them😥 I wish I wrote them down.

    Families used to clean their families stones. On Sunday, after church, families would picnic in cemeteries and clean them, plant flowers. Many families died out completely and they fall into decay. In the modern age, the advent of TV kept people home and they abandoned stone maintenance.

    In the late 1800s to around the 1930s there was an explosion of interest in "spiritualism," involving ideas of the after life, Egypt, and ancient mysteries. I wonder if this family were followers of those explorations. And being a part of that movement, built that pyramid as a resting place, or even perhaps, based on the ancient Egyptian religion, a hope for a rebirth? So beautiful and rare. Thank you

    I'd hate to see it get cleaned off and tidied up. I think it's beautiful the way it is, and it is fitting that our memorials return to the earth as we do. Call it Life after Death, if you will, because though we pass, plants grow, the world continues. Once I'm gone, it won't be important to me if people even come to see my grave. I'll be beyond time and space, dwelling with my Creator.

    I love your videos! Just wondering, 🤔 perhaps the large mosolum, was used as a public vault? In the days before heavy earth moving equipment, if the ground was too frozen to hand dig a grave, the bodies were placed (temporary) in a vault. Come spring, they were given a proper burial in their final resting place. As for there being human remains still being there, I can only guess that, after it was decommissioned, someone may have purchased it, and repurposed it, as a private mosolum? 🤔
