Calluragh Burial Ground/An Cheallúnach: This appears to have been in use as a burial ground for children until at least the 1840's (OSNB Cloghane, 25). It consists of a quadrant-shaped mound which is composed mainly of stones, now grass-grown and partly obscured by vegetation. It measures a maximum of 19.9m E-W and 16m N-S and is up to c. 1m high above the external ground level.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 886. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
