The enclosed ground surrounding a church where graves are located; a churchyard or burial ground.
From Old English 'græf' (grave) combined with 'garth' (an enclosed yard or garden, from Old Norse 'garðr'). This term specifically denotes the sacred yard where the dead are buried.
Gravegarth perfectly captures a Viking-influenced English word that combines Old English and Old Norse—it's a linguistic echo of the Norman invasion, where Norse-speaking Normans settled in English-speaking lands.
