## Architectural heritage (National Inventory of Architectural Heritage)

- God's Acre, graveyard/cemetery, 1740–1745, Regional interest, registry number 10301236, https://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&county=CW&regno=10301236. Burial ground, opened 1748, on a square plan. The original lease for the burial ground (1748) describes it as 60 square perches in extent while a later lease (1781) describes it as 1 rood in extent. The burial ground was originally used by the Religious Society of Friends who met in nearby Kilconner but, by the late twentieth century, was used exclusively by the Lecky Watson family (Butler 2004, 29). The neo-Gothic gateway was erected (1908) by Feilding Marriott John Lecky Watson (1873-1943) 'AS A MEMORIAL TO THE MEMBERS OF THIS QUAKER FAMLY WHO SETTLED AT KILCONNOR [sic] IN 1620 AND WHOSE REMAINS LIE INTERRED IN THIS AND BALLYKEALY [sic] BURIAL GROUND'. An invoice from C.W. Harrison and Sons (fl. 1889-1972) of Great Brunswick Street [Pearse Street], Dublin, survives at Altamont House (see 10301326) but the gateway has recently been attributed to Patrick Hogan (1852-1936) of Fennagh (Conry 2006, 269-70).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
