Church (site of) & graveyard is a medieval ecclesiastical site located in the Newry and Mourne district of Northern Ireland. The site represents the remains of a church and its associated burial ground, dating to the medieval period, though the precise chronology of occupation and use requires further archaeological clarification. Such sites are characteristic of the religious landscape of medieval Ulster, where parish churches and their graveyards served as focal points for local communities. The survival of the graveyard alongside the church site demonstrates the continued use of the location for burial practices across successive periods, common to many ecclesiastical foundations in the region.
