Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Kilmore (trughanacmy By.)

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Kilmore holds a forgotten ringfort where earth still presses against time. Men may have lived there before roads or writings, watching weather and raising children under open skies. The fairies took the story from human memory, leaving only a ridge in the field. What is buried there is not lost, but waiting for someone steady enough to listen.
