What is recorded here

Half a century after the chalice vanished, two boys dragged it from the soil with shovels, proving that forgotten treasure still waits beneath ordinary fields. They may have chosen the fort because they believed it would protect their potatoes from blight, turning a fearsome fairy abode into a practical shield against hunger. The chalice returned not through scholarship but through the reckless curiosity of children who never suspected they were digging into history.
Ardagh Fort is recorded as a archaeological place in County Limerick. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
