What is recorded here
Creevagh in tirawley By. holds a earthen ringfort, a circular defensive structure built from soil and stone. It is a place where people lived, resisted or belonged long before modern boundaries drew attention elsewhere. The fort still marks the landscape because its shape resisted forgetting.
