What is recorded here

No visible monument remains at Cartronmacmanus, though ancient hands once stacked stones there. The earth has taken back the court, erasing the chamber and leaving only a hidden memory beneath the soil. What was built to preserve identity has become identity itself, transformed into landscape.
