What is recorded here
Childrens Burial Ground stands in County Clare, Ireland, marked only as a children's burial ground. The official record withholds its history, leaving the site unnamed and unexplained. That vacancy does not diminish it; it refuses to reduce the dead to a line of text. Go there quietly, watch the ground and leave the children in darkness.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
