What is recorded here

Lissan is a stone ringfort in County Clare, Ireland, where ancient walls still stand against the sky. It is the kind of place people avoided at dusk because the stones belonged to someone else. What those owners wanted is no longer certain, but the boundary they drew remains visible in the earth.
