What is recorded here
Kilbreedy Burial Gd (for Children) is a vanished children's graveyard hidden beneath a Limerick field. No stone or ditch remains visible, yet the land still carries the shape of small losses. Children may have played near that corner before adults carried them away for burial. The ground keeps what the surface forgot.
No surface remains visible of children's burial ground depicted as a small circular-shaped enclosure in NW corner of field on the first ed. OS 6-inch map. Annotated 'Kilbreedy Burial Gd. (for Children) on this map.
