The National Monuments Service's description
This record is based on a reference in Aldridge (1969, 83-7) to a children’s burial ground in Cashel townland. He described it as consisting of ‘two small piles of stones on a slightly raised rectangular plot, with a larger square stone cairn [MA015-055002-] to the west." The exact location is unknown.
