What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort in County Galway, an earthen ring where human history has thinned to legend. Its ridge may have marked a boundary, a home or a warning, but the earth has taken back the names and facts. It remains a visible shape in the landscape, inviting imagination to fill the vacancy left by forgotten time.
