What is recorded here
Fairy fort in Lissataggle, County Kerry: an earthen ringfort where human hands shaped the land before memory faded. The ridge may have marked a home, a boundary, or a place set apart for stories. People walked past it, lived near it, or avoided it depending on what they believed. The earth still holds that shape, waiting for someone to notice the line they drew.
