What is recorded here
Garracloon North holds a burial site in County Galway, though the details remain hidden from public view. The land may have swallowed kings, farmers or forgotten children, yet no name survives to mark the loss. What is buried there still belongs to the earth, waiting for someone patient enough to listen.
