What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Gilltown, County Meath: a circular ringfort, internal diameter roughly 45m and external roughly 60m, set on the crest of a steep north-facing slope above the River Boyne at Brú na Bóinne. Tom Condit first identified it in 2013 from an old aerial image; the circle still shows as a cropmark, a ghost line in the field. People may have lived there, loved there, forgotten there. The earth keeps the shape of what the mind lets go.
