What is recorded here
Dromduff East holds thirty plus single stone markers beneath one oak at the southern edge of a pasture field, locally remembered as a famine burial ground. The stones cluster instead of forming rows, as if urgency replaced ceremony and the living had no time to measure dignity. That the oak still stands above them turns the field into a chamber where forgetfulness becomes a choice rather than a default.
