What is recorded here

Childrens Burial Ground is an unenclosed rectangular area with rounded corners, measuring roughly 40m by 10m, hidden in undulating Galway grassland. It sits at the end of a narrow path, far enough from the river and boundary to feel deliberately set apart. The shape suggests care rather than accident, as if someone marked a small world where childhood ended and memory began.

In undulating grassland, at the end of a pathway c. 150m NE of the td. boundary and c. 600m N of a river. Marked on 3rd ed. of OS 6-inch map (1932) as an unenclosed rectangular area (NE-SW 40m, NW-SE 10m) with rounded corners. Not visited. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
