Donaghcloney Old Graveyard
This old graveyard is situated on a mound above the River Lagan. It's clear to see that the site was once a reasonably large ring fort, well sited just above the river. The previously circular site was altered by the building of the road. The oldest known gravestone dated from 1707, but many of the oldest stones are sadly no longer obvious or legible. The following inscriptions are or were on headstones in the graveyard. Photos of headstones follow beneath.

COVID-19 STATEMENT
While the coronavirus pandemic is still ongoing, the majority of our local members are now double vaccinated. We are also now allowed very limited numbers in to the room we use in Bleary Business and Community Centre. For this reason:
-
we can now run hybrid talks, courses and workshops, where some members can be in Bleary, socially distanced and with face coverings, and others join them on Zoom
-
outdoor visits, such as walking tours, can be offered
-
limited ticket indoor events are being considered.
This notice will be updated when the situation has sufficiently improved to be able to have fewer restrictions.
