What is recorded here

Killaghaun holds a children's burial ground within an early ecclesiastical enclosure, marked by set stones and east-west graves. It sits beside a well-preserved ringfort whose causewayed entrance still bridges the ditch. The place contrasts domestic life and sacred loss, preserving small bodies beside the boundary of a family farmstead.

Within an early ecclesiastical enclosure (GA045-011001-). Unenclosed and much-overgrown subrectangular area (N-S 18m, E-W 17m) within which numerous set stones indicate graves oriented E-W (Claffey 1983, 149-150).
