What is recorded here

Children's burial ground in Cloonmoylan (ballyglass Ed) is a rectangular grassland place beside the Cappagh River, marked by a broken drystone wall and two uninscribed stones aligned like small graves. Its size and simplicity suggest it may have held children rather than adults, giving the quiet field a tender, shadowed purpose. The gap in the wall and scattered stones leave the story unfinished, inviting wonder about the lives laid to rest there.

In grassland, c. 200m to the S of the Cappagh River. This rectangular burial ground (12.4m NW-SE; 6.6m SW-NE) is defined by a poorly preserved drystone wall (int. H 0.2m; max. ext. H 0.8m; Wth 1.2m) with a gap (Wth 1.6m) at SW. Within the interior two uninscribed set stones indicate graves aligned E-W. Other loose stones scattered about appear to be the result of field clearance. Possibly a children's burial ground. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 30 January 2020
