What is recorded here

Graveslab in Friarsland, County Galway. No public story, date or visible feature has emerged for the name. The region is covered in buried roadbeds, lost farms and forgotten chapel lines. A graveslab may mark one of those erased places, waiting for someone to walk the land and listen for what the stones repeated before they were covered.
