Restoring a Classic Irish Headstone in Fennor, Gortnahoe
At Tayens Memorials, we recently completed a full headstone restoration project in Fennor Cemetery, Gortnahoe, County Tipperary.
The memorial had become weathered and dull over time, losing much of its original charm and contrast.
We carefully cleaned and restored the stone using our gentle sandblasting method, bringing back the detail and texture of the carving without damaging the original limestone. To finish, we added a beautiful white marble plaque, giving the headstone a fresh and elegant new look while maintaining its traditional Irish character.
The before-and-after transformation shows the difference expert restoration can make — from a tired, faded monument to one that now stands bright, clear, and dignified once again.
