What is recorded here

Kill, County Cork: A sub-rectangular burial ground measured eleven point seven by ten point eight metres, holding grave markers in its southern half within a slight earthen bank. It sat in pasture near the Church of Ireland church, waiting for people to remember that quiet rectangles often belong to the dead before they become data. Fence clearance and forgetting removed much of its shape, but the markers still suggest bodies, love and loss.

In pasture. Sub-rectangular area (11.7m N-S; 10.8m E-W) enclosed by slight remains of earthen bank. Some grave markers noted in S half of interior. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
