Abbeyside Graveyard Expansion Decision | Waterford News

Abbeyside Graveyard in Dungarvan is on the verge of a major expansion, with Waterford City and County Council set to decide this Thursday whether to approve plans that could reshape the site’s future. The proposal, submitted by Father Ned Hassett in October 2025, seeks to extend the graveyard northeast of St. Augustine’s Church, add two columbariums for cremated remains, and implement various site improvements. This long-awaited development aims to meet growing burial and cremation needs, ensuring the community has adequate space for generations to come — but the final verdict is still pending.
