Coffins exposed as graveyard wall collapses

COFFINS are sticking out the side of a well-known Dublin graveyard after the weather conditions hitting the capital led to the property’s main wall collapsing.

The high winds and torrential rain that battered the city throughout Sunday and Monday resulted in the discovery yesterday at St Mary’s Abbey, which stands just above the Harbour Road in the north Dublin district of Howth.

Locals reported hearing a loud noise at about 9pm on Monday as the conditions outside worsened.
