What is recorded here

Within the N half of the interior of a ring-barrow (GA095-087----). McCaffrey (1952, 36-7) recorded a 'number of small stones serving as markers for modern graves' or 'children's burials'. Several upright limestone boulders are visible but no particular alignment is discernible. The ring-barrow was probably reused as a children's burial ground.
