    this fort you could see two other forts. There were a lot of trees growing in this fort once but they were cut down.
    There was one tree left in the fort. It is said that the fairies lived in this fort and that they always played round those trees on bright nights. When the trees were cut down the fairies had not any tree to play round and there was one tree left standing for them.
