Fairy forts are an iconic feature of the Irish landscape, and an integral part of the country's folklore. Join Jo Kerrigan as she delves into the history and beliefs behind these striking landmarks. With evocative photographs by Richard Mills, master folklorist Jo Kerrigan explores the origins of these mysterious circular structures: the stories and legends, the history and archaeology, the living traditions and practices connected to them. And reminds us of the dangers of disturbing the ancient spirits dwelling beneath.
