What is recorded here

In a rath (MA119-028001-). The interior of the rath was used for the burial of unbaptised babies. Several small, low moss-covered unshaped and uninscribed stones protrude from the ground. These appear to be gravemarkers. Due to dense overgrowth, they are difficult to see, and it was not possible to determine their density or any pattern in their layout.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record MA119-028002
