Famine grave
The famine burial ground at Templecurraheen, where over 1,000 souls rest in silence — a solemn reminder of the Great Hunger and its lasting mark on Carrigtwohill.
Myrtle tree
Found in graveyards due to their symbolism of love, immortality and remembrance. The myrtle is evergreen symbolising immortality and the continuation of life beyond physical death. This aligns with the idea of remembering and honouring the deceased.
