What is recorded here

Tomb is a National Monument in County Galway, marked as unclassified but owned under the National Monuments Acts. The name withholds more than it gives, a bare label for a place that may have held bodies, bones or memory. Galway has no shortage of buried time, and this is one of its quieter markers.
