What is recorded here

Grave Yd is a children's burial ground in County Clare, Ireland. The ground may have held small bodies from nearby towns or farms, while adults watched the children leave the world of the living. That possibility makes the place both sad and intimate, because it suggests a local community marking the smallest losses it could afford to remember.
