St Senan's Abbey?church
This early church was built in the Early Georgian period, with a tower being added in 1756. It was abandoned after the construction of St Senan's, and is now a ruin. It sits on the site of a 6th-century church founded by St Senan.
Amazing ruins with a 1717 plaque still intact! What an awesome find Sue. The big mausoleum at the back and the beautifully carved one with the round opening belong to the Colthurst Family. (I think they have 4 vaults in this graveyard) In the smaller one, Sir Nicholas (1789-1829) was interred in a lead coffin then sealed into 2 wooden coffins. You have to google what happened to this crypt in 1895 Sue.OMG! Really enjoyed your adventure today. Thank you. Deb of Oz.
Hey Deb, wow, I've pinned your comment here and I'll share it on my community great information, have you an email by any chance, Facebook Instagram?
Hey Deb can you send me that extra info please I'm still not getting info, all I'm seeing is the newer church that area, thanks a million x
The Colthurst family were extensive landowners in county Cork and Sir Nicholas’s father and grandfather had both represented Cork constituencies in the Irish parliament. He was returned for the city largely as a result of government support and was an independent supporter of administration throughout his parliamentary career. He had defeated a staunch pro-Catholic Member, Hely Hutchinson, and as the Catholic interest at Cork was so significant, their claims were always his major problem. He had privately assured ministers that he opposed Catholic relief
Thanks Natalie I have a great group here for helping x
Girls, girls, I just searched a little more and found the gruesome story of what Deb had found, omg, now this I will have to tell on my channel..I'd prefer to do this in video to give the details,
According to Google a cockerel on a gravestone means awakening to a new day . Another great video and seeing things that are new to me , learning from you both all the time . Thanks guys xx
Thanks Caron, appreciate this x
Beautiful
Thanks Mandy x
The scenery is especially lovely at this site, love seeing all those rolling hills and trees. Hope this place gets a little restoration work, nice work filming!
Thanks Matt, appreciate it ❤️
watching now Sue , Sorry I missed the premier , there are some lovely designs on those old tombstones some I've never seen , gorgeous church and cemetery loved the peek in the mausoleum ❤
Hey Julia I've never seen that either super cool, I promise to catch up on yours soon been super busy x
@@SerenitySueGraveyards it's all good whenever you can no rush x
One of my favorite hobbies is walking through cemeteries and reading the stones, exploring the mausoleums, etc. I've been told it's creepy but to me it's almost like a history lesson in a way and isn't creepy at all. My mom and her mother also share this same hobby but my kids do as well. Once they were old enough, we'd find different cemeteries to go to and wander around reading and exploring for hours sometimes. I'm from the southern part of the US so there are some amazing places to go; We'd find cemeteries EVERYWHERE and many of them are absolutely incredible, especially way out in the country where their existence is mostly forgotten, so we were honestly paying respects and remembrance to the many forgotten people in those old secluded cemeteries. It's been awhile since I've roamed a cemetery and your videos make me feel like I'm right there with you so thanks for that!
Thanks Andrew, I absolutely love it, nothing as peaceful and beautiful like a walk through a Cemetery
Hi Sue, lovely video of a very picturesque graveyard. It is sad that many stones are crumbling away leaving no names that can be read, the names are always interesting. Take care and safe travelling, best wishes and thankyou from a still cold and wintry New Zealand, though Spring is not far away ♥
It's a beautiful area Irene, as you say picturesque
Great tour. Another open crypt that’s very strange. I missed a portion I got booted but it was a great visit. Thanks Sue !
You got booted, noooo, sorry that happened but I couldn't get in once premiere started thought it was going to stop altogether then it just worked x
Great find! So much history and variety. Beautiful. Thank you for the tour.
Cheers toms I just loved the views of this, especially the view that's on the thumbnail so Beautiful
Another wonderful church and graveyard. Loved seeing the cow as well as the coffins. Thank You Sue and GV. Much love from the USA!💚
Thanks Gail, appreciate it 🙏
A strange coincidence, but I came across a crypt of a vesey just yesterday in England in a quiet little churchyard dated 1890, I did have a quick look into his history and remember seeing some family links to Ireland, I need to re find the information now, thanks for another lovely video!
Oh wow Kelly, how cool, yes definitely look into it x
Old cemetery well kept. Great 👍 video.
This was beautiful 😍
Love the Cork tour. Thank you from Wisconsin, USA where you have provided wonderful viewing on a rainy Sunday afternoon. I love the stone work, carvings, iron fence patterns and feel sad for so many who have no one to come and tend the sites any more.
Hi and thanks for watching x
Greetings from the States..I love the Emerald Isle...so beautiful
Thanks Robert appreciate it x
Love the rails..It looks like the first mausoleum was concrete blocked in a more modern time. So sad, with the statues it had to be gorgeous
Hi Sylvia, I loved that mausoleum too, so well built x
That wooden coffin was in amazing condition.
It was Sandra, it kind of looked like it had a blue tone to it x
It is special the old and new graves ... gone but not forgotten ... ty Sue and GV
Thanks William ❤️
This was great Sue! So many in that mausoleum, sad it is in such disrepair 😞. Thanks!
Hey Liz that's a fantastic mausoleum, lots of coffins in there, who, well we probably won't ever know x
Lovely old cemetery. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Sandra x
A beautiful day and many beautiful markers as well.
Thanks Amy x
Rot iron needs to be tended to and cared for or it will rust.
It's a shame there isn't more care in the cemeteries there. There's been a big movement here to keep the little cemeteries up. And restored. Which is kind of nice.
I love the rusty rails I know eventually they will turn to dust but some of these are 100s of years old..it is a shame, I agree but unless there's funding and most times there is not it's up to local volunteers to clean it up x
Love this place so pretty. 1 am here nite everyone.❤️
Thanks Brenda x x
This place is so big you need to bring a little bit to eat. So cool to see old years of Numbers on the stones. Thankyou ❤️ for the tour. Tell that cute guy hello 🤗. Suzie.
Thanks Suzie x x
As always Sue, another great #1 video from you and your family to the rest of the world! 👍👍✌✌😉😉✌✌ Your country is so beautiful! Imagine if the World Could live as One! ❤❤✌✌
Thanks Richard, I appreciate it so much
Yes, that is a lovely dream but the world living as one will not become a reality until Jesus Christ steps foot on earth once again.
Unfortunately so
You both did so well getting a look inside well done
Thanks Hazel love you 😍
I just checked why the lock mite be upside down. I think it's because they have had the doors made & the hinges are built on the wrong side for the doors opening inwards or outwards. So they turn the doors upside down & maybe back to front. So if you see a plane door with a key hole upside down . There is a good chance that there mite be a nice pattern on the inside. You will have to keep an eye open for the locks & then check if the hinges are on the inside or outside. Just a bit more stuff to look for on your adventures. I have seen this on church doors that's how I noticed it. I imagine it would have been to expensive to make new doors for little mistakes like the side the hinges are shown.
Thanks Anthony I'll definitely have to keep that in mind, great information
Very interesting.
That diamond pattern appears on a lot of crypts, and ceiling patterns in church passages. Love it.
It is very beautiful alright ❤️
What a beautiful explore Serenity Sue! I found this cemetery quite peaceful! Especially when you panned around & showed us the scenery around you! Excellent video as per usual! Much love from Alberta, Canada ♥️🇨🇦♥️🇮🇪
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you 💝
Lovely to see the old & the new graves. I wonder Whether the cemetery is still open to new burials ?
Glad there is no evidence of break ins with the mausoleums. Although there is bound to be decay & weather damage through natural neglect, it’s sad that the contents within will deteriorate.
Thank once again Sue - so interesting. !👍😉
Thanks Roger, yes I'd imagine they still take new burials but maybe only into graves that are already there
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Graves already there?
I mean like family that already have a grave in the graveyard
Looks so peaceful and well kept. The newer black stones are pretty. I see a lot of them in our cemetaries here in America. A lovely video Sue. I appreciate the tour and the time you put in. God bless dear Sue.❤😊❤😊
Thanks Deborah ❤️
Hi hope you're well and in good form today it's great to watch so much history well done love it 😀
Hey John, thanks a million x
You have to admire the skill of the stonemasons of those times. There were no power tools to assist them back then. Its a beautiful peaceful place to be laid to rest. You say their names and they are not forgotten. Best wishes my friends.
Absolutely amazing stonemasons, gifted
This was another great video..ty so much!
Thank you Wendy x
Thank you for this tour in County Cork ! My grandmother's parents were from Cork before they immigrated to the USA.
That's great, I've a few from Cork on my channel x x
missed the last 10 mins due to work call.....from what i saw was enjoying the vid and will catch up with the rest once im home...👍
Hey Jordan cheers x
That's a lovely place
It is beautiful Hazel x
Thanks Sue!
Very welcome 🙏
I really like the place, very suitable for content to make videos at night to find out the negative energy...👍🙏
It would but I think the ground is so uneven you'd break a leg or fall into a hole
Another very pretty little graveyard! Maybe the calf wanted some "me" time away from the herd! Lol.😊👍
Haha Hans, you're so funny, here's me thinking he was deserted by his family, turns out he's getting some valuable "moo" time 😅 yes this places is beautiful
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Why didn't I think of "moo" time! Lol. 😄👍
Haha Hans, I got you 😉
Awesome your today again.
Thanks Louise ❤️
That was a nice graveyard the car rings on the stones are lovely
They were
Such beautiful serenity
Thanks asa x
A fascinating video, thank you!
Thanks Stephen, appreciate it so much
The flowers on the mausoleum look like dogwood flowers!
They could be for sure, I'm not the best at flower names
I’m just wondering re the so old and very new grave sites here.
Here in Australia there is still some cemeteries that are reserved for those who where born and died in the area only (usually small country towns)
We have a cemetery like that not far from us.
It wasn’t until around 10yrs ago that permission was given to those who have passed away to be buried there that hadn’t been born in the area.
Since this was allowed the cemetery has grown around 5 times the size it originally was.
All the original graves are at the front of the cemetery and all the newer ones at the back of these.
The only way you can be buried at the front of the cemetery is if you have direct links to those who were original settlers and are already buried there.
Yes we used to have that here but now it's more or less open to anyone money speaks I think
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I wish I could send you a photo.
My daughters school has a heritage listed pioneers grave yard at the entrance of her school on the right.
It’s of the original settlers of the area we live in.
I don’t know if any other school that has this here
You can send me an email Nicole x
@@SerenitySueGraveyards what’s your email address
Oh sorry its here on the channel in the about section but it's suzanneofarrell@hotmail.com
Amazing place
Thanks Mary x
Love the Ivy❤️
Me too makes things so pretty
Lovely setting.
Thanks Blue Moon x
You find. Some of the best headstones
Thanks ❤️
Ears ringing is a sign from your Guardian Angels or spirits that they have a message for you 😇😇❣️
Yes, I've heard of that before ❤️
Roosters, I understand. Cockerels, I had never heard that term
Yes they all mean the same really x
Looks a bit more well kept shame the mausoleums are falling to bits
Yes much better kept but the crypt is looking bad
As long as the people don't hurt anything it won't hurt anything will it. I know they should have there own home but some people don't want that.
Oh I agree with you but I felt sad that some body was taking shelter there, no one should feel like they have to sleep rough but I also understand that some choose this, I have sat with homeless people and I've fed them and when I had spare money I've given them some..❤️ I hope they are safe
I've found after working in the inner city for years there are people who like it . Prefer living ruff! I don't get it but they seem to like it! No responsibility, That might have something to do with it. Yes I hope there ok. I hope there not a child!
I suppose after years of living on the streets it becomes life for them, I don't understand that way of life either
These abandoned mausoleums are beautiful and erie at the same time. I like the song you use on your intro. I that Jordan Nash?
Hey April, it's Jory Nash, I love this song too, I emailed him and asked could I use it and he said yes, how amazing is that ❤️
I meant to say Jory Nash. I love his music.
He's amazing, there's a few I really love of his, this is my favourite
Those really tall old gravestones with 6 or 7 family members on it must mean a crypt beneath yes ?
Hey Robert, not always..my own family are buried together in one grave x
those holes in that museum are vent holes on that one that has pine cones and fallen in you know what is funny the old rails around graves in the USA years ago were sold off to antique dealers to put around their house it is a shame that happens
Yes Jamie, fancy vents, no way are you serious, that's so sad 😢
Did you happened to notice while you were looking inside the window of the mausoleum that there was a shoe visible at the 27 minute mark. It's an older leather shoe by the looks of it, and it's very visible as I can see the holes for the shoelaces and the laces as well.
Wow, I'll check again and let you know
OK I checked again, there is definitely something there, I am wanting to tell the story on this mausoleum that might well explain why the shoe is there
@@SerenitySueGraveyards my apologies for my slow reply. I am currently carrying for my mother who is fighting a losing battle with glioblastoma. Anyways, I actually explore abandoned buildings from time to time and the idea of someone getting inside that mausoleum is actually not that difficult in my head. All there would need to be was an opportunity where no one was around, or it to be late at night. All you need is someone to boost you up to the window or to bring a ladder, and once you're past the window you pretty much have free reign of the entire mausoleum. I find that quite sad however, as when I explore I explore abandoned buildings without human remains inside them. You are extremely respectful while visiting these individuals in their final resting place and I applaud you for that, I wish I could make videos like yours as I also like to visit graveyards as well as their residents. If you want to check out some of my videos I have a few of me exploring abandoned buildings in Massachusetts.
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I find exploring abandoned buildings is somewhat like you exploring these graveyards and cemeteries. While walking around I find myself doing research on the building and it's architecture as well as it's history. I have been in buildings as interesting as an insane asylum all the way down to the mundane and every day of an inhaler factory. I have also encountered individuals who have passed over in more of the high energy places. The most intriguing experience I have had was being in pitch Black tunnels in the basement of an insane asylum when suddenly about two floors above I heard the most blood curdling scream of an elderly woman, after which I asked my friend who is with me if she had heard that as well. She told me that she hadn't after which she quickly stated that she heard footsteps and asked if I had heard them as well to which I replied I had not. As you can imagine after taking a few photographs we quickly left the area and apologized to the spirits who are still presiding there. I have also encountered a quite chilling room before where it was set up like a laboratory for testing experiments on monkeys, however it was a hospital dedicated to special needs children. We later found out that that room had been used to feed children radioactive milk to test the effects it would have on the human body. Without any of their consent or their guardians consent. If you're interested in that I can send you a link to an article written all about it. It's quite upsetting however.
Have you a channel? Here on you tube, this is worth a channel for sure, I'd certainly watch it yes send the link please
You should get an endoscope with the tiny camera 📷
I have one John but to be fair it's only OK.. the light does not shine up very well, even using my torch with it too, it has a big cable on it, maybe I just need more practice x
A beautiful well kept place just a shame about the graffiti.
Hey Nicole, the graffiti is just terrible
wow,how many people are in that mausoleum????
I seen at least through the top and more at the bottom, beautiful mausoleum
I wish people would stop putting graffiti on these beautiful old pieces of history!
I don't get it Dan, it's just disgusting to look at and dirty looking, no respect for history
Hi Sue, great video. The cemetery seems to be in fairly good condition,
although the mausoleums are showing some wear. I did not see any obvious signs of vandalism.
You mentioned being in Cork. Would this be in county Cork, in Ireland?
Or am I totally mistaken?
Thank you very much again Sue.
Take care.
Yes this is co. Cork
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Thank you very
much for getting back to me.
It is very much appreciated.
May I ask a question again?
Here in the United States, the
larger cemeteries have ground
crews to care for the cemetery grounds, and provide security. The main offices are often located on the cemetery grounds, and at night
many of these cemeteries have night security personnel. The smaller, more secluded rural cemeteries often do not have this.
Is this the same in Ireland?
No night staff the bigger cemeteries do have caretakers but they are only cutting the grass and the bigger cemeteries sometimes have an office where you can enquire of records but I don't see much of theses either, the rural ones basically have volunteers that will come in and clean
@@SerenitySueGraveyards Thank you again Sue. Here in the United States also,
The smaller rural cemeteries depend
mainly on volunteers to help with the
upkeep, as best as I can determine.
I believe these rural cemeteries are at greater risk of vandalism, than the
larger, more centrally located cemeteries. Perhaps that is true in
Ireland as well. Thank you Very much again Sue for all your information, and patience with my questions. You and your partner are
doing a great job. Take care.
Thanks so much
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks
Hey everyone
hi
Hi from Swdeden.
Hi Vivian x
Hey Johno
Hi Marie x
Sad homeless are living in this cemetery. Happens in the USA as well.
Happens all over the world, its a sad situation 😞
I see this after I see the dentist
hi Jason
@@johnosgraveyardjaunts2235 hi there
Those big trees around the cemetary were probably just weed like 50 years ago!
What those trees have seen in the last 50 years
Sue, can you tell me the difference between a tomb and a grave.
A grave is just a plot or burial the tombs go under ground
26:32…is that GV? The noise like a “hnnn”
See I have looked back Wendy I thought it was GV ,just never know
@@mariegreen6163 it probably was GV: “hnnn..gotta get up and shine the torch” 😂
Yes think it was him helping me out with the torch
@@SerenitySueGraveyards hope he’s not a snorer 😂
Haha I know I am so we cancel each other out x 😅
What kind of stone are your head stones made out of?
Some are marble, granite, even slate on the older ones, I'm sure there are other kinds too wish I knew more
Here in the states they used sand stone for many many years. Not the best choice as sand stone deteriorates very quickly. Stones less then 100 years are unreadable.
I'm sure we have similar here too I'd imagine too with our weather nothing would be left, it's so wet here
The mausoleums are belong to colthursts of blarney Castle and are completely forgotten about now by their descendent who inherited the castle now my grandparents and father are also buried in this cemetery
It's a wonderful place, so beautiful and yes the mausoleums are almost all forgotten, how sad, did you see your grandparents grave in my video?? May they rest in peace
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I did you went past it while you were going to the crumbling mausoleum it's in by the side of the church. Their is an interesting story about the first mausoleum by the gate about being broken in to by British soldiers around 1895 I think it was when they were stationed in ballincollig I must find the link for you
@pauls7031 that story is also on my channel, horrific story
@@SerenitySueGraveyards must have missed that video will have to have a look at it keep up the good work love the channel along with gv's channel I've always had an interest in old graves and cemeterys. I'm in the process of trying to find my great-grandfather and great-grandmothers graves that are buried in the cemetery in the middle of blarney village
@pauls7031 is that the graveyard opposite blarney castle? I have a video here too, lots of people buried from the castle in there
,they are safe there at least.
They are x
Are the family members buried one coffin on top of another?
Yes, no grave liners
Hello Sue how u doing stay safe❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm good thanks Tina, hope you are too
