What is recorded here

Cloonnagro holds a circular earthen fort, the kind of rath built by human hands long before written records. It is not a fairy creation, though local names often disguise human work as supernatural play. The ring may have served as a boundary marker, a shelter or a ceremonial place, shaping the lives of the people who walked its edge.
