What is recorded here

Stone Circles is a fairy fort in County Galway, Ireland. Its stones still stand in a ring, marking a boundary between human life and older forces. People may have built it to keep out what the dark hides, or to hold something precious inside. The gap between those intentions is where the mystery lives.
