What is recorded here
G. Yd. remains a graveyard in County Galway, though no public detail records its boundary, age or the people it holds. That absence does not diminish the place; it returns the land to imagination. Beneath the grass may lie generations of locals, their names erased by time but their breath still shaping the quiet field.
