What is recorded here
Caldragh (Site of) in County Cavan, Ireland, is the likely site of an early church, as a children's burial ground in that townland still suggests. The small graves cluster where worship once gathered, leaving behind a quiet danger and a tenderness that outlasted every named person who prayed there.
Davies (1948, 110) believed that the children's burial ground in this townland (CV025-115001-) was probably the site of an early church.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
