HOLLYWOOD, ST. KEVIN'S CHURCH OF IRELAND, COUNTY WICKLOW,
IRELAND  Nos. 1 - 47

As of May 2013, this Church is infrequently used for
worship.  The main entrance is on the R756. Inside the gate
the area to right and left of the path was devoted to
burials of members of the Catholic Church.  In other areas
you will find burials of members of the Church of Ireland.
There is a second entrance to the Church. In order to use
this entrance, walk up the road beside the Hollywood Inn,
and there is a little turn off to the right, at the end of
which you will find a gate.

Headstone inscriptions marked * were found in the Catholic
area of the Churchyard.
