What is recorded here
Reaskcamoge holds a ringfort, a circular earthwork built by human hands yet named for fairy folk. The boundary between human history and fantasy collapses at this site. What appears as a mundane archaeological feature becomes a threshold where imagination and memory overlap. The fort resists classification precisely because it belongs to both worlds simultaneously.
