What is recorded here

Dromcorragh holds a ringfort where local tradition claims children were buried, though no markers remain visible beneath the heavy growth. The earth may still keep small bones hidden under grass and decay, waiting for patience rather than tools. Forgetting has done that place more violence than any shovel ever could.

In ringfort (CO132-042---). According to local tradition, interior used as children's burial ground. No grave markers noted; heavily overgrown. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
