What is recorded here

Kilvoydan South in County Clare, Ireland holds a fairy fort, an earthen ringfort whose boundary still traces the field. People may have lived, hidden or worshipped inside that circle before written memory, while local imagination later assigned it to fairies. The clay wall does not explain itself, but it resists forgetting.
