What is recorded here
Children's Burial Ground in County Clare, Ireland, held unbaptised and stillborn children excluded from consecrated churchyards under Canon Law 1239. Roughly 150 such cillíní dot the county, part of a west-coast cluster shaped by strict Franciscan enforcement of the rule. Families carried small bodies to edge-lands near water or old boundaries, keeping love visible while obeying a ban that marked childhood itself as unfinished.
Children's Burial Ground is recorded as a archaeological place in County Clare. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
