What is recorded here

Knocknahaha holds a true earthen ringfort, though local pride still calls it a fairy fort. The name suggests more wonder than reason, yet the earth remains shaped and standing. People may have lived there, feared it or forgotten it. The clay remembers every possibility even when human memory fails.
