What is recorded here

Killeighter, County Kildare. A few unworked field stones sit slightly upslope and to the S of the formal grave plots, with no definite pattern and no names. They may mark children buried before the church fell into ruin or the holy well stopped giving water. The stones do not demand ceremony, but they refuse to be forgotten.

Near the centre of a graveyard (KD004-031003-) and slightly upslope and to the S of more formally laid out grave plots. A few unworked, earthfast field stones, arranged in no definite pattern may mark the graves of children. The graveyard also contains a ruined church (KD004-031002-), a holy well (KD004-031004-), a holy tree (KD004-031005-) and there is a possible early ecclesiastical enclosure site (KD004-031001-) immediately outside to the N.

A Children's burial ground, likely pre-19th century, possibly reflecting early Christian or folk traditions; its informal layout suggests a local or family practice of burying children apart from the main graveyard.
