What is recorded here

In a rath (KE058-061003-). Some loose stones are scattered in the interior of the rath but no obvious grave-markers are visible. The children's burial ground was recorded in the 1940s as 'simply the corner of a field with mounds and hollows all over it and a few rough stones uninscribed round about' (Minutes of the Co. Kerry Field Club, 1941, vol. 1, 181). A church (KE058-061002-) is associated with this burial ground.
