HORRIFIC DISCOVERY, SHOCKING TRUTH, SHAMEFUL

St Paul's Church is a local treasure. It was built to replace an old church built pre-1559. The first service took place on September 3rd, 1849, and continued until 1984 when it closed down. It has fabulous stain glass windows designed by Katie O'Brien and donated by the Robinson Family when the church was first built. It has a fantastic pipe organ donated by Seymour Murphy, which is one of only three in Ireland. There is something truly special about this church. It has a belfry spire with a unique conical shape.The architecture was considered so outstanding that Dr Bloomfeild, the late Bishop of London was anxious to have a drawing done of it, in order to introduce it to the wealthiest and most important diocese in the world. The church was lit with brass oil lamps, though it was changed to electricity shortly before its closure. It is sad to see it in its damaged state. It is hoped that it will continue to be a heritage treasure for years to come.
In the middle of the cemetery in a ruined church, which was built in 1699.
The cemetery is regularly maintained and is open to the public. Many local heroes are buried in Ballymoney cemetery. Joseph daunt 1826, Lennox Robinson, a poet and a man who worked with theatre for many years and General Arthur O'Connor to name but a few. Many of those buried were involved in the Ambush at Kilmichael.
unfortunately, signs say danger. Keep out, but you can access the graveyard.

I was late checking in so I am watching the replay. I really enjoy both of your videos. I try not to miss any of them. Being in the states the people of Ireland and England seem lost family to me, because of my early family ties. When I retired 20 years ago my plans where to come over there and do some family research. Unfortunately, we are not in control of our destiny. I was in a major relapse of my MS in 6 months of retirement and did not improve and my doctor restricted my travel to only short visits. Now at 72 years of age I have became so interested in these areas, studying them daily and learning all I can. Being a Historian majoring in History and Political Science started my interests further. Keep up your good work. Both of you are so thoughtful in your presentations. 😊

Beautiful churches & graveyard. I am fascinated by the old stones & markers but also how in some ways the old cemeteries are quite different than what we have in America.

Interesting channel. Appeals to my youth when I haunted the gorgeous crypts in Mount Royal Cemetery, Montreal and peeked in where possible. The highest grounds had the richest tombs, like gardens with stone carved tables and benches for the famlies who would go there to picnic with old beloved . . . kin and gossip.

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

Oh I love that, we only have a few graveyards in Ireland like this, mount Jerome and Glasnevin. Both on my channel

It makes me so sad to see the beautiful churches in ruins or going to ruin. I know that they are so costly to preserve & maintain. If they are Catholic churches Rome should be preserving them. I'm a practicing Catholic & I find it appalling that Rome just let's them fall apart. Heaven knows they have the money to save them.

Beautiful area. Odd that there's so many unmarked stones all over the place.

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

My thoughts exactly

[@ProwlingTiger1]

Yeah unless in rare cases- like when the dead can potentially benefit the living- like in the case of Sir Mark Sykes-(shame that didn't work out though), or remains need to be moved elsewhere so they are not damaged and/or destroyed, due to building work or some other valid reason, - rest in peace- should mean exactly that- rest in peace, no disturbing, and even if decay over time means a once secluded resting place becomes accessible- respect should still be shown, that's a least 1 person's or more- final resting place and that should be honored, no matter how old those remains are. Also if you are someone who believes that: _... Before respect can be earned/granted in death, it should of first been earned in life"..._ please remember, - that it is not just about the person who died, its also about the people who loved & cherished them, _(whether those people are still around or not)_ and honors the bond, as well as the precious memory those people had for the dead person.

What a shame this beautiful church and graveyard are left to decay 😢

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

It is sad 😔

Am I the only one that saw the “second tree”, and thought……Wow that tree looks light and person standing and stretching their arms up to the sky, almost like an Angel???💞🪬🧿🕊️🌳🪦💫🕊️🧿🪬💞

It does, such beautiful trees and inside the church, did they know it's the closest to heaven they are

[@jacquelinemartin405]

I wonder if alot of that rubbish might of blown in on the wind.... Or yeah thrown in by plonkers. Another good video cheers Sue! ❤

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

Couldn't have blown in, well just looking at the height of the slab in front..

[@deniseatkins9407]

Such a beautiful place I wouldn't expect any of my family to have markers as I know we were poor and most of my relatives buried in England have no grave markers

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

That's ad, I know it's big money for funerals now, never mind a headstone

[@cherylschantz9893]

It’s too bad that they can’t remodel these churches to house the homeless. Beautiful place.

[@SerenitySueGraveyards]

I agree, it's such a waste
