What is recorded here

Killaclogher Childrens Burial Ground occupies the east half of a Galway enclosure, marking twelve metres of small undressed stones set in rows eight-tenths of a metre apart. The alignment suggests child graves stretching east to west, waiting beneath soil and time. Rows that close distance, repeat shape and exclude adult size point to a young community buried together rather than scattered across a common field.

In E half of an enclosure (GA071-041----). It comprises an area (E-W 12m) of small undressed irregular stones aligned in rows, c. 0.8m apart, indicating graves oriented E-W. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'.
