What is recorded here
Moyglass More is a forgotten name in County Clare, perhaps a field, a townland or a local spelling now lost. The fairytale label warns that people saw the earthworks as magical rather than measuring them. A solid ring of soil may have stood where imagination later took over, preserving human labour inside a story about spirits.
