What is recorded here
Gleann Chalraí Íochtarach holds an unclassified castle in County Mayo, waiting for identification rather than imagination. The valley itself suggests a place where water, stone and memory became tangled before humans learned to separate them. What is missing is not a warning but an invitation: to watch the land reveal what it already knows.
