It s completely unacceptable to desecrate the headstones of people s loved ones like this

Gorey gardaí are investigating after headstones at the old Clonattin graveyard on the outskirts of Gorey were damaged by spray paint. The blue paint, commonly used to mark roads, was sprayed across a number of headstones, some of which are very significant to Gorey s history. The incident was reported to gardaí during the last weekend of February with a clean up due to take place as soon as possible. Genealogist John Nangle, who is part of a Graveyard Committee in the North Wexford Historical Society, visited the graveyard last week and was appalled by what he saw. The graveyard had become very overgrown in recent years until a team of volunteers, including members of North Wexford Historical Society and Gorey Tidy Towns, cleared it three years ago. Wexford County Council now helps maintain it.
