What is recorded here
Addergoole More holds a children's burial ground where crude cross-slabs mark the buried dead. The stones sit scattered among rubble in County Galway, their simple lines cutting through forgotten time. What the children knew, what they touched, and what they lost remains hidden beneath the moss and rain.
Noted among rubble, to the E of a cross-slab (GA017-008005-), in the SE sector of the children's burial ground (GA017-008004-). A small boulder bears a crude single-line cross. Another similar cross-inscribed boulder (GA017-008006-) lies in the SSW sector of the burial ground.
