In my school district there are several forts but I know only five of them. The owners of these five forts are Jack McAuliffe, Mr Gentleman, Francis Quilter, William Conway, and the Nuns in Lixnaw. Jack McAuliffe's fort is situated in the townland of Ballintogher, Mr Gentleman's fort is situated in the townland of Ballyhorgan, Francis Quilter's fort is situated in the townland of Lixnaw, William Conway's fort is situated in the townland of Lisoughtra and the Nuns' fort is situated in the townland of Lixnaw.
