What is recorded here

Childrens Burial Gd (Disused) is a disused burial ground in County Cork, Ireland, marked on the OS 6-inch map of 1842. It occupies a pasture on a north-facing slope where an irregular rock outcrop defines the boundary. Grave markers still appear along the north side, suggesting the ground remained in use long after it stopped being tended.
