What is recorded here

On E-facing hillslope close to seashore, and immediately N of the td. boundary wall. Known locally as Garraí na bPáistí (Robinson 1985, 46), it consists of a few small set stones in W part of a field. Local tradition records that it was in use until 50 years ago, and that Famine victims were buried immediately S of the td. boundary wall (pers. comm. T. Robinson). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
