What is recorded here

Foghanagh More and its neighbouring fields mark a battlefield where violence once broke the quiet of County Roscommon. The list of places surrounds the main ground like witnesses, preserving the shape of the conflict even when the details have faded. Men may have bled there, and the land may have swallowed their names, but the field still belongs to the event that changed it.
