A book documenting the names the inscriptions on headstones in Castlehyde cemetery, was launched in Adair Hall, Fermoy last Friday evening.

Since then, a great deal of work has been carried out, with a view to maintaining the cemetery, most notably, cutting grass, strimming, clearing ivy, repairs to walls and general maintenance.
