What is recorded here
Carrowcor holds a forgotten ringfort where human hands shaped the earth before memory faded. The stones may have served as a boundary, a home or a warning, but their true purpose vanished with the people who built them. What remains is a circular scar in the land, waiting for someone reckless enough to listen for the voices that shaped it.
