What is recorded here
No visible trace remains in Drummina, County Clare. The lost fort may have stood as a small stone ring, marking a boundary or sheltering a family before the land changed. Its disappearance does not reduce it to fantasy; it joins the many ordinary places that stopped being repeated and became memory.
