What is recorded here

Inch Castle Promontory Fort stands where land stops and sea takes over, its coastal position turning the waterfall into a wall and the cliff edge into a gate. People may have built there because the ocean did the heavy work of defense, leaving them only to stack stones, light fires and watch the water carry what it wanted. The forklift can move soil but it cannot explain why this narrow neck of earth still feels like a trap set for the tide.
