    The third one is situated on the side of a hill facing the East, and is the same size as the first one but is is round. It is surrounded by one ring of hawthorn bushes and is hollowed in the middle. There is an old gap leading into it. It is a field away from the other two. People do not interfere with these forts in any way, because cattle died with anyone that interfered with them.
    Lizzie Beirne, 8..2..1938.
