## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- KE062-002: Children's burial ground, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKE062-002----. Children's Burial Ground: This site is located immediately above a low cliff-edge on the rocky shore of Kells Bay, and affords an extensive outlook to N across Dingle Bay. Triangular in plan, it is delineated at W and S by two drystone walls that measure 36m and 23.5m long, respectively; it is open to the sea at NE. Approximately two hundred uninscribed grave-markers occur in its interior, arranged in at least twenty parallel NE-SW rows. A small marble slab marks the location of a recent cremation burial. As a result of storms in 1989, a pair of parallel drystone walls, 3.2m apart, became exposed in section on the seaward side of the site. Well-faced with a rubble core, they average .9m wide. The W wall has a maximum height of 1.2m. The walls may possibly be identified with the 'old building near a grave', noted at this site in the OSNB (Killinane, 39). There is a vague tradition of rounds formerly being performed at the site on Good Fridays (local information), and the bodies of a number of sailors were reputedly buried here during both World Wars (Sugrue 1993, 24). The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1021. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 30 July 2013

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
