What is recorded here

Polldrian Fort is a fairy ringfort in County Mayo, Ireland. Its earthen bank still stands where human hands stopped shaping it and local imagination took over. People may have lived inside its circle before withdrawing into legend, leaving behind a boundary between the ordinary world and the unseen one.
