What is recorded here

Lisheennkirka is a children's burial ground in County Galway, Ireland. The completed field record is not public, but the name still points to a place where young lives ended and adults responded with care. That much is enough to imagine the village around it, the loss it absorbed and the reason the ground was set apart.
