What is recorded here

Childrens Burial Gd stands in County Clare, Ireland. It is a children's burial ground, a quiet place where small lives ended and were laid to rest. The ground may have swallowed infants taken by fever, hunger or birth itself. People walked past it daily, perhaps avoiding eye contact with the soil that kept so many tiny bones.
