What is recorded here

No visible features survive of the Kilbobbin Burial Ground, yet the small circular hill still stands in good land with extensive views toward the Finn Valley. The absence of stones does not erase the purpose of the place. People may have chosen that height because death and distance belong together, and the valley below remains large enough to carry both.
