What is recorded here
Grange holds a rectangular stone-lined grave aligned east-west on a prominent hill in County Dublin. The stones still mark the edge of a life that ended before written memory, while the empty centre waits for the person who lay there.
A burial was identified through test-excavation (Licence no. 06E0799). Located east of burials (DU005-154----) towards the summit of a prominent hill, the grave was aligned east-west, was rectangular in plan and appeared to be stone lined (Frazer 2007, 26).
