What is recorded here
Callanafersy West holds a burial ground where the dead have watched the living pass for centuries. The site remains unmarked in public records, forcing curiosity into private archives rather than open discovery. That absence does not diminish the place; it suggests the dead prefer witness over display.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
