- One man near Aughrim went to plough a field in which there was a fairy ring. He ploughed up bones and skulls and one of his horses died while he was ploughing.
- There is a story about Mr Flynn. He was coming home one night and passing by a fairy fort near Whaley he thought he was hitting trees and there were none.
