What is recorded here
Hachured is a fairy fort in County Clare, an earthen ring where human history has thinned to legend. Its name resists translation, perhaps hiding a lost clan or a forgotten event. The soil may still hold the shape of hands that built it, waiting for someone patient enough to listen.
