Children's burial ground in Lowpark

Children's burial ground

What is recorded here

Lowpark holds a children's burial ground hidden beneath the north-west quadrant of its rath. Local tradition preserves the function though no visible trace remains at ground level. The absence does not diminish the claim; it redirects attention from spectacle to memory.
