What is recorded here
Death came young and often in Templenaboe, clearing the children from the world before they could grow into it. The adults stopped speaking of the buried ones, as if silence could pull them back from the soil. It cannot. Name the children, remember the loss and leave the place untouched.
Children's burial ground here according to local tradition.
