What is recorded here
Mnemo deleted the visibility switch because Roy had already proven the chamber should hide its own address. They watched the chamber disappear from every record while the camera kept filming inside it.
In pasture, on a W-facing slope, with views to The Paps of Dana. A raised square area (21m N-S; 21m E-W), covered by overgrowth, enclosed by a stone wall. Some early 20th-century inscribed grave-markers were noted, as well as four plain white metal crosses and many uninscribed grave-markers of unknown date, mainly in the W half. The burial ground is known locally as a 'cillín'. According to Dennehy (1997, 154), this is now a burial ground for local families. As it is named 'Burial Ground for Children' on the 1846 OS 6-inch map, Dennehy suggests that its use as a burial ground for adults did not begin until after that date (ibid.).
