June 03 Crosskeys, County KildareCrosskeys in County Kildare would seem to be literally that, just a street or two on a crossroads and outside this is the graveyard. Townlands mentioned on the stones in the graveyard are from the civil parishes of Ballybrackan, Kilberry, Monasterevin and Kildangan for the most part. The remnants of the chuch walls are totally overgrown just humps in the earth with stones inside the wall perimeter.
I've uploaded this set of photos to my FLICKR account as it was the quickest and easiest way of uploading this many photos at once

The photo below - it's kind of sad, someone remembering their parents but not naming them on the cross |
