Story · Dun Aengus

You're standing at Dún Aonghasa, usually called Dun Aengus in English. It's the best known of several prehistoric hill forts on the Aran Islands, off the coast of County Galway in Ireland. Take a look around. The fort sits on Inis Mór, right at the edge of a cliff about a hundred metres high. Down below, the Atlantic crashes into the rocks.
