What is recorded here
Grass grows thick over forgotten graves in Aglish South, County Kilkenny, where the dead have slept since before written memory. The stones may be gone or buried under soil, but the shape of the place still marks the boundary between the living and the lost. People walked past this spot for generations, carrying bread, grief or silence, and the earth kept every name it was given.
