What is recorded here
Childrens Burial Ground occupies the north half of a Galway rath, marked only by loose uninscribed stones that may be displaced grave-markers. The absence of writing forces imagination to complete what measurement stopped short of, turning bare rock into a chamber where unnamed young lives still breathe.
Within the N half of the interior of a rath (GA098-070----). All that survives are some loose uninscribed stones that are possibly displaced grave-markers.
