What is recorded here
Knockangrin Fort is a fairy fort in County Clare, an earthen ring where the boundary between worlds grows thin. Local story claims the fort belongs to the hidden people, not humans, and warning marks still outline its edge. Those marks may have been set by ancestors who learned the hard way that some doors should stay closed.
