Mound in Kilnamanagh

Mound

What is recorded here

Kilnamanagh in County Dublin once held a burial mound now lost to memory and change. Ua Broin noted its existence in 1944, but even that witness cannot point to the exact grass or soil where it stood. The mound may have marked a death, a boundary or a family line, yet no stone or name preserves the answer. What remains is a hole in the local record, large enough to swallow an entire life and leave no shadow.
