What is recorded here

Lisduff is a fairy fort in County Clare, an earthen ring where human history thins and legend thickens. It stands as a rath, a circular boundary drawn in soil rather than stone, inviting wonder about the lives that shaped its edge. The fort preserves the shape of occupancy even when the names of its residents have faded from memory.
