What is recorded here
Hachured is a ringfort in County Clare, Ireland. Its earthworks still trace a circular boundary, perhaps marking a home, a boundary or a place of judgment long after its builders left it behind. The name resists easy explanation, but the shape remains clear: a made circle on open ground, waiting to be remembered.
