What is recorded here

No visible trace remains at Rinneen, though local memory and the official label preserve the site as a cashel or ringfort. The missing stones do not erase the shape; they invite imagination to complete the circle. A fort is a boundary drawn by human hands, and boundaries often reappear in dreams when flesh forgets them.
