Wow! I agree, Brendan should write a book about all this, so much knowledge about all the history there ! Whoever else would ever know as much again! So please Brendan, your locking history away from future people interested. I’m wondering whoever had the idea for these Cadaver tombs! You said they were made in England and brought over, so does anyone watching know of any cadaver tombs in England,? Whoever would have come up with the gruesome idea, to show beetles,worms and maggots devouring the body as it rotted…..yuk! But apart from the yuk side,it was truly fascinating to learn all about this. I wonder how many bodies are down in the vaults below? It’s a lovely little chapel, so peaceful, and a lovely private place to bury your family eventually. Thank you for investigating this GV ….you learn so much about Irish History and rules from this channel, and I love how Ireland seems to have either milder weather or harder grave stone material to allow us to see such beautiful carvings, names and the dates incredibly going back more than 100 years..!! The churchyards are all so peaceful, plus I was delighted when you had an EVP recently from Peter! So Thankyou for all you do, to bring us such a fascinating channel.
