What is recorded here
Keeloges in Burrishoole holds a circular earthen ringfort that local tradition claims belongs to fairies. Human hands built the visible ridge, yet the name suggests the field still answers to older, unseen residents. The fort stands as a boundary marker between ordinary life and the strange world hiding just beneath the soil.
