What is recorded here

On a rise on the N bank of the Boleyneendorrish River. This children's burial ground is defined by a densely overgrown rectangular area (L 11.2m; Wth 8.7m) which is enclosed by a drystone wall at N, a row of stones at W and a natural scarp at S. A single boulder marks the E side. Within the interior a number of set stones, most of which have collapsed, mark graves.
