What is recorded here

Half a dozen small stones still mark children buried on the east face of a Galway hillock. They are not the largest graves in the world, but they are the kind of place where love and loss stopped being abstract.

On a narrow terrace on the E face of a steep hillock. A heavily overgrown unenclosed area (7.5m N-S; 5.5m E-W) contains about a half dozen small grave-like marker stones. According to local tradition, this is a children's burial ground. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 8 March 2017
