What is recorded here
Cappanageeragh is an earthen ringfort in County Clare, Ireland. It is a rath, a circular fort built of earth. People may have lived inside it, defended it, or left it to the fairies. The earth remains shaped like a room without walls, waiting for someone to remember why it was made.
