What is recorded here

In rough grazing land, largely covered with gorse and ferns, on the N shore of Bere Island. According to local information, this is the location of a 'cillíneach' or children's burial ground. It was not possible to examine the burial ground due to dense overgrowth. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009). Date of upload: 22 December 2009
