What is recorded here
Indicated is a fairy fort in County Clare, Ireland, where the boundary between human memory and myth still blinks. Its rings may have marked a household, a boundary or a warning, yet the name itself points instead of claiming. To stand inside such a circle is to be answered by the land: human life may have shaped it, but the fort still holds its own secret.
