I would worry of cave ins, that would freak me out like no tomorrow!!Most of them are too faded. I love these old grave yards, but walking round them is hazardous. Many graves are barely marked by small rocks, so I spent more time watching where I step than looking at the details. The Irish seemed to not care much about keeping their graves in neat rows either, I'd hate to know how many graves I accidentally stepped on.
That's a big part of the reason I love them so much. They just capture the imagination! I would love to buy a ruin here to restore when we get round to buying a property, but some of these buildings are beyond rescuing. Unless you have a huge budget! I think we may go for something a little more modern "in need of renovation" though, depending on finances, the property market and if I can talk DH into a small castle somewhere. I saw a lovely up in Co Galway for a VERY reasonable price
