Burial Gd. for Children — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Quarry teeth and road noise still frame the children's burial ground in County Limerick, though thistles and nettles have swallowed most of its shape. A small clear patch remains where the old survey marked it, beside an earth mound likely born of quarry spoil rather than grief. Any child laid there is gone from sight, yet the place keeps its own quiet arithmetic: loss, taking, and the living world moving across what was sacred.

In area of waste ground between road to NW and working quarry to SE. No evident surface remains of burial ground in area strewn with stones and overgrown with thistle, nettles etc. though area (c. 10m NE-SW; c. 8m NW-SE) where site marked on OS 6-inch map relatively free of overgrowth. Mound of earth (H c. 1.2m) to NE probably spoil from quarry. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
