What is recorded here

No visible trace remains at Crag, though local memory holds a hidden ringfort beneath the grass. That absence is not a mistake of record but a clue about the site itself: a shallow earthwork can disappear while still shaping the ground where people walked, played or avoided it. The name Fairy fort suggests more than antiquity. It suggests the place resisted ordinary explanation, becoming a boundary between human memory and something older.
