What is recorded here

Coulagh is an L-shaped burial ground in County Cork where many grave markers still break through pasture grass. A low stone-faced bank and field fence enclose the dead, while a possible church site waits inside the grass. The living may have walked past this quiet edge for generations, feeding sheep above forgotten prayers.

In pasture. L-shaped area defined by field fence to W and N and stone-faced earthen bank to E and S (H 0.6m). Many grave markers noted. Possible church site (CO114-00302-) in interior.
