Most burial grounds follow the contours of land, hedge, or property boundary, settling into irregular shapes over centuries. The one at Lacka Lower, in County Limerick, measures roughly forty metres to a side and sits within an earthen bank, the kind of raised perimeter that often indicates considerable age, with a stream running immediately outside the bank along its northern and eastern edges. That combination of geometry and water gives the site a quietly defined character, almost as though it was laid out with deliberate intention and then left for the landscape to grow around it.

At or just north-east of the centre stands the roofless ruin of the medieval parish church of Killagholehane, a building that has long since lost its roof but retains enough standing fabric to mark the religious origins of the place. Parish churches of this type, built during the medieval period, were typically modest stone structures serving a rural community, and Killagholehane fits that pattern. The graveyard around it continued in use well after the church fell into ruin. The recorded monuments include a single chest tomb, a form of raised box-shaped grave marker common in the nineteenth century, dating to the mid-nineteenth century, while the earliest legible headstones noted on site belong to the late nineteenth century. The site was compiled for record by Denis Power and uploaded to the national monuments database in August 2011.

The graveyard remains in occasional use and is maintained, so it is not derelict. Access is from the south, through a modern entrance gate approached by a path leading from an avenue. Visitors coming to look at the church ruin should be aware that the ground around older sites like this can be uneven, particularly near the earthen bank. The stream on the northern and eastern sides is worth noting if you walk the perimeter. The church ruin itself, though roofless, retains structural interest, and the chest tomb near the centre of the enclosure is worth examining for its mid-nineteenth-century detail.
