What is recorded here

Indicated is a cashel in County Mayo, Ireland. It is not a hidden fairy fort, though that label may have flown ahead of the facts. The rock and soil are clear. The story told about it is not complete. A place can be known for what it is before anyone decides what it means. That is why it still stands out.
