What is recorded here

Death and memory belong together everywhere, but Burial Ground gives that old relationship its own address in County Galway. The name removes the need to speculate about what the ground holds. People died, others stopped to remember them, and the land kept both parts of that promise. The absence of a visible monument does not empty the place; it redirects attention from display to continuation.
