What is recorded here
Fairy forts are unclassified in official records but people still call them that because the shapes suggest more than human hands. Boherhallagh keeps its ring hidden under grass and legend, waiting for someone stubborn enough to walk its edge at dusk. The absence of facts does not empty the place; it hands the meaning back to imagination.
