The National Monuments Service's description
Depicted on the OS 6-inch map as Kyleturraheen and infants burial ground. Large D-shaped enclosure (TS046-002003-) which may have been a graveyard associated with the church (TS046-002001-) and then reused as a children's burial ground, the remains of which may be the low unmarked orthostats orientated on a N-S axis in the E sector of the enclosure.
