On NW side of Fermoy town, L-shaped graveyard enclosed by high stone walls. Entered by gateway with pair of widely spaced cut-limestone piers at E end of S wall; plaque commemorating use as famine burial ground on W pier. Archway into military graveyard (15200) at E end of N wall; blocked gateway at N end of W wall. Ruinous 1-storey gabled structure at SW corner. Interior level, grass-covered; no evident burial markers. Served adjacent Union Work House (now demolished); according to Garner (1986, 73), graveyard 'was only in use during the earlier part of 1847'.
