A #headstone in Camus Old #Graveyard

"Here Lyeth the Body
of William Adam(s?)
who Departed this Life
11 Jan(r?) in the Year of our
Lord 1813 Aged18 Years"

Most of the headstones date from the 19th century.

Looking over the wall at Dunboe Old Graveyard - a #ewe and her #lamb grazing. Something which matches the #BlueSkyArtsShow theme of #Green

The ruins of #Dunluce #Castle on the North #Antrim #coastline this afternoon.
Although there's been a castle on the site since the 1300's, the current structure dates from the early 1500's and has been abandoned since the late 1600's. It is open to visitors.

Over the last few years, #memorial #trees have begun to be planted in Christie Park, #Coleraine
This one, covered in pink #cherry #blossom commerates an 86 year old man who died almost 2 years ago.
It's been planted on the edge of the #river #Bann

The site for Camus Old Graveyard was probably chosen because of its proximity to a #ford on the #River #Bann
The #wall in the photo is said to have been built with stones from the ruined #monastery

A view across Camus Old Graveyard near #Coleraine taken this morning.
This was the site of a #monastic #settlement founded around 580AD by Abbott Comgall of Bangor, who later became a #saint
