What is recorded here
Under the Castle Balfour Demesne in County Fermanagh, a workhouse burial ground holds the forgotten dead. The official record marks only the centre of the site, leaving the true edges and the number of graves unknown. The land belongs to the living, but the patience beneath it belongs to everyone it swallowed.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as Workhouse Burial Ground. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
