Ballinclay Burial Ground which dates from 1778 is situated in the middle of a large field and is framed in a small copse. It is surrounded by a stone wall and its entrance is that of an arched gateway. Originally it was divided in to 2 unequal plots, the smaller containing a shed and the larger was used for burials. In 1882 the dividing wall was removed. In springtime, the ground is carpeted by a beautiful display of crocuses. (Source: David M. Butler, The Quaker Meeting Houses of Ireland, 2004)
