What is recorded here

Two earthen rings still crowd the Loughakeo hillside, close enough to touch and near the crematorium, reminding that death and memory belong to every landscape. They are called fairy forts because people believed the dead or hidden beings lived there, yet they may have been ordinary human houses, farms or shelters from centuries ago. The name does not dismiss the truth; it admits that the place holds more than can be measured.
