What is recorded here
Childrens Burial Ground (Disused) marks a lost cluster of young lives within the SW quadrant of a cashel (GA096-098----) in County Galway, Ireland. Dense overgrowth has swallowed the site until one small set stone still breaks through the vegetation. That single marker suggests a place where love, fear and loss once collided before forgetting took hold.
Within the SW quadrant of a cashel (GA096-098----). Due to dense overgrowth, all that is visible is one small set stone. (McCaffrey 1952, 158, no. 61)
