What is recorded here

Killavally East holds a lost crannog, perhaps a wooden island or a hidden ledge where someone built a home above the water. The lake has taken back the doors, floors and fireplaces, but the place still belongs to the people who stood there watching rain strike the surface. Crannog is not a ruin to judge, nor an empty field. It is a life that stopped being visible, waiting for someone to remember the shape of its days.
