    little cemetery with a large cross Celtic, but access is difficult to see. Very flowery and location in the countryside.

    The admission is free. A round tower and two of the finest high crosses of Ireland are located on the system.

    Cross of Ireland's unusual superimposed circular cross section cross. Tall, so called Hi-cloth. And normal Latin cross on the Spire of the Church, the Celtic Cross is often seen in the cemetery. Monasterboice is made in a good state of conservation of the highcross famous Abbey ruins and cemetery historic site. So come a Newgrange tour from Dublin on the way.
