What is recorded here
Children's burial ground in Lodge, County Galway, disappeared when a landowner removed it in the 1950s. No visible trace remains inside the enclosure, but the children may have slept there for generations before being erased. Forgetting them is not the same as stopping them from existing.
Within an enclosure (GA042-185----). According to local information, there was formerly a CBG here. No visible surface trace survives. It was apparently removed by the landowner in the 1950s.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
