What is recorded here
Killosolan holds a graveyard where the dead have waited patiently for living people to remember them. The site remains unrecorded in public archives, forcing curiosity to do the work of history. Someone buried there, perhaps a child or an old lover, still belongs to the town even when no written source speaks their name.
The Archaeological Survey of Ireland (ASI) is in the process of providing information on all monuments on The Historic Environment Viewer (HEV). Currently the information for this record has not been uploaded. To access available information for research purposes please make an appointment in advance with the Archive Unit (open Fridays 10.00 am – 5.00 pm), Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, The Custom House, Dublin 1 D01W6XO or email NMarchive@housing.gov.ie.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
