  1. A lios in Milane consists of 2 underground rooms. One was once entered and a small pipe discovered but the inner could not be entered because of foul air.
    These were made by the Danes and fairies lived in them. The owners never plough these lios fields or interfere with them in case of annoying the "Good People". Singing music and dancing has been heard in the lioses at night and around midnight.
