What is recorded here

Knockaneda held a levelled single-ramparted fort roughly thirty-six yards across on Mrs Sheahan's land before the earth forgot its shape. Bowman recorded the vanished circle in 1934, preserving a boundary that human hands or time has since smoothed away. The fairies keep their own fort there, perhaps waiting for someone honest enough to stop digging and start listening.
