What is recorded here
Malone Lower holds workhouse burial grounds from the nineteenth century, marking the place where poor law systems disposed of human bodies. The site belongs to County Antrim and preserves the brutal arithmetic of institutions that claimed lives then buried them without witness. Whatever names were erased, the ground still carries the weight of hands that raked soil over strangers.
