What is recorded here
Graveslab in Loughrea, County Galway, remains a recorded monument whose story is still locked away from public view. The absence of shared details does not diminish the place; it invites imagination to fill the gap. Perhaps a forgotten life ended there, marked only by stone and rain. The missing record becomes a chamber of possibilities, waiting for someone brave enough to enter with wonder rather than facts.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
