What is recorded here
Indicated is a stone ringfort in County Mayo, Ireland, where ancient walls still circle the earth. It is a fairy fort, a place where the boundary between human life and hidden worlds grows thin. The stones have watched seasons turn and stories change, keeping their shape while ordinary forgets them. To walk near it is to enter a place where the seen and unseen share the same ground.
