Demesne burial grounds of this kind occupy a particular and sometimes uneasy place in Irish history. They could serve a landed family's private needs, contain the remains of estate workers or tenants, or occasionally overlie far older sacred ground that a later landlord simply absorbed into their parkland without much ceremony or record.

The details of this particular site, who used it, how old it is, and what physical traces remain, are not currently available in the public record. That absence is itself worth noting. Many such burial grounds across Ireland passed through centuries of use, fell out of regular maintenance after the decline of the landed estates in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and now exist in varying states of legibility, some with legible headstones, others marked only by uneven ground and the memory of local families.
