What is recorded here

Furroor Lower in County Clare holds a ringfort, an earthen circle built for human life long before the fairies took the name. The clay wall still stands against the sky, marking a place where people once lived, worked and perhaps loved. The fairies came later in the story, claiming the fort as their own, but the earth remembers the first hands that shaped it.
