What is recorded here
Kiljames Lower holds a graveyard where dead people have slept since before records existed. The field keeps its own counsel, marking time in soil rather than ink. People may have stood at those graves, whispered names into wind, and left before memory faded. What is lost in paperwork remains present in the ground.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV).
