What is recorded here
Garranereagh holds a burial ground where the dead have watched the living world turn for centuries. The site sits in County Cork, preserving the remains of people whose names and stories have faded from memory. Its continued existence suggests the community valued the place enough to return it to earth rather than abandon it.
