What is recorded here

Children died young in Rathmore and went into that hidden ground beside the church, not the adult graveyard. No stone or mark broke the grass to tell where they lay. The adults probably believed the children needed a separate place, close enough to God but far enough from the living to keep everyone sane.

In an ecclesiastical enclosure (KE068-006001-). According to local information, children were buried here. There are no visible remains of any graves or grave-markers.
