What is recorded here

Knocknagallagh holds a man-made underground passage on the east side of its ringfort, though no surface trace remains for anyone to point at. The absence does not diminish the claim; it invites imagination about hammers, digging tools and the breath of people who shaped stone beneath the grass. What is missing becomes a question instead of a wound, and the ringfort answers by keeping its edge sharp.
