The graveyard in Glendalough is situated on a gentle south-facing slope between the Glendasan and Glenealo rivers. A large quadrangular enclosure, 100m E/W by 110m N/S, defined by a modern wall and stony bank, now surrounds the cathedral, round tower and graveyard. An extension of the wall on the south side of the entrance divides off the north third of the graveyard. This enclosure may be superimposed on an earlier inner enclosure. The overall site is bounded at the north, east and south by rivers and apart from the general outline there is no clear west perimeter. This outer enclosure would have been at least 400m from east to west.
