What is recorded here

You can picture the dead lying beneath stones so large they defied reason, while the living watched the sky turn above them. The tomb still belongs to County Clare, unchanged except for time and weather. It is not a display or a warning. It is a chamber built for continuity, where human life stopped but human intention continued.
