What is recorded here

Yes. An ancient monastery and medieval church lie buried beneath a quiet graveyard at the edge of a Dublin plateau. A tall granite ringed cross still stands near the entrance, guarding memories from the time of St Canice. The valley glows beside the stones, waiting for someone brave enough to listen.
