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.
In a rath (MA063-005----). According to local tradition, the NW quadrant of the rath interior was used as a children’s burial ground. No visible trace at ground level.
