What is recorded here
Slievenavadoge holds a earthen ringfort, a circular defense built by human hands long before modern maps. The soil remembers feet, fire and fear, even if the names of its builders vanished. Fairy fort is the local story, but the shape is human: a boundary drawn against darkness.
