Cairn

Cairn, unclassified

What is recorded here

No visible ruin remains, only the hidden weight of buried stone and forgotten time. What the ground swallowed, men and women once shaped with their hands. They measured distance, marked loss or watched the sky turn above County Mayo. The cairn still holds that shape beneath the grass, waiting for someone to remember why it was built.
