What is recorded here

Nooan's stone ringfort stands as a cashel, a place where human history and fairy legend collide. The stones may have marked a boundary, a home, or a warning, but the fairy name suggests the living world once retreated before something older. That much is preserved in the name itself: the fort belongs to both histories at once.
