Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Gowla (killian By.)

No one knows when the fort stood or who lived inside its earth wall. A man may have born children there, watched storms come off the Atlantic, and left the fort empty when his line ended. His descendants may have forgotten the fort before they invented the road that crossed it. The field is called the fort field because a man remembered the shape of the ground and repeated it until other people believed him. Forgetting does not remove the fort. It returns the fort to the land that first held it.
