What is recorded here

Ardnakisha Burial Ground lies immediately south of the public road and north of Gerald Griffins GAA club in County Limerick. The 1840 map named the place but never drew its edges, while the 1897 map replaced that absence with a disused quarry. A tree-covered patch south of the quarry may still hold the buried dead, waiting beneath roots and forgotten stone.
Located immediately S of public road and N of Gerald Griffins GAA club. Annotated‘ Ardnakisha Burial Ground’ on the 1840 OS 6-inch map where it is located to the S of the public road. However the extent or precise location of the burial ground is not depicted on this map. The burial ground is not depicted on the 1897 0S 25-inch map which shows a disused quarry in the area of the burial ground. Tree-covered area to the S of the quarry visible on Google Earth orthoimages may be the site of this burial ground.
