Burial Ground (Site of) — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Mutton's Field is a sports ground in County Cork, but the buried dead are the reason it exists. Children chase balls across grass that covers forgotten graves, while the children's laughter drowns the silence of the dead below. The field is not empty; it is layered, with life playing above memory and motion hiding what burial once kept still.
