What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Inchincummer, County Kerry. An earthen ringfort, local people called it a fairy fort because the shapes and stories lived there more often than human dates. Soil, grass and time have worn the edges smooth, but the circle still holds. It is the kind of place where ordinary life and old imagination stop pretending they are different.
