What is recorded here

Graveyard in Kane stands in County Louth, Ireland, holding a man-made underground passage and the possible remains of a medieval church. The site may have served as a place of worship and burial before becoming a quiet graveyard. Its hidden passage suggests people once built beneath the surface, perhaps to protect, hide or remember. The place still carries that dual life, open to the sky and closed to the dark.
