What is recorded here

Caher is a stone ringfort in County Mayo, Ireland. Its walls still stand where human hands built them, though the names of those builders have faded from memory. The stones may have guarded a home, a boundary or a sacred place, but the absence of records does not reduce the fact that they remain.
