What is recorded here

Knockmore Fort is a fairy fort in County Clare, an earthen ring where the boundary between human law and old myth thins. People may have built it, forgotten it, or refused to enter it because the land itself was already occupied. The ridge still stands like a closed mouth, keeping its part of the contract intact.
