What is recorded here
Children died young in Glenbrack and went into the cashel soil without markers, leaving behind a clean absence instead of stone. The ground kept what the village could not name, smooth and unbroken beneath the grass.
Associated with a cashel (GA122-008----). According to local information, the cashel was used as children's burial ground (SMR file 1970). No grave-markers were noted.
