What is recorded here

Killone Grave Yard is a children's burial ground on a gentle slope beside a holy well in County Clare. The oval mound still holds upright stones, marking little lives lost before records or praise. It is not a display or a warning, but a place where childhood ended too soon and the earth kept the difference.

On a gentle SE-facing slope 30m E of a holy well (CL038-007001-), and named on the 1st ed. of the OS 6-inch map as 'Killone Graveyard'. Oval, slightly raised grass-covered area (18m N-S; 10m E-W) defined by a scrub-covered scarp (H 0.4-0.7m), and slight traces of a fosse in a band of wet ground (Wth 2.5m) N-W. The mound is covered with set upright uninscribed stones (H c. 0.5m). Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 14 April 2020
