What is recorded here
Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Faslowart is a subcircular grass and scrub-covered area in County Leitrim, Ireland, defined by an intermittently visible stone spread and hedge. The low-lying place has no identifiable original entrance, but its modest stone edge still draws the eye across the undulating landscape. People may have gathered there, avoided it, or simply passed it by, while the stones waited for rain, boot traffic and memory to keep shaping them.
