What is recorded here

Childrens Burial Gd (Disused) in West Cork is a sub-triangular field of grass and forgotten markers, not a showplace. It is the kind of spot where love and loss went underground together, and the land kept both.

In pasture. Sub-triangular area (max. L 31m; max. Wth 16m) partially enclosed (N and W) by stone field fence and bounded to S by laneway. Numerous grave markers noted. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
