Knew I had been to somewhere similar but it’s not the same place. This is not far outside Clonmel. This place was no longer used, roof is off.

Got this in the comments from where I cross posted it from. According to local lore:
• A churchman (often said to be a bishop or abbot) buried at Kilmacduagh was considered deeply sinful or corrupt in life.
• After burial, disturbances were reported—unnatural sounds, movement, or the belief that the body would not rest.
• Fearing a curse or malevolent presence, the monks were said to have sealed the grave with heavy stone, sometimes described as being mortared shut.
• The sealing was meant to contain the spirit and prevent further harm, a practice echoed in Irish folk belief about restless dead rather than formal Christian doctrine.
