Killana Childrens Burial Ground

Children's burial ground

What is recorded here

Killana Childrens Burial Ground stands in County Clare, Ireland, a quiet place where young lives ended and were laid to rest. The grass may hide rows of small bodies, each one a child torn from play and promise. When storms strip the soil, perhaps bones appear, reminding the living that childhood does not always end in joy.
