  1. There is a fort in Lugnagal. It is called a "Fort". It is in view of other forts. It is circular shaped and there is a fence of trees all around it. There is an entrance in the centre of it. It is said that in olden times lights were seen going from this fort.
    The owner of the land did not interfere with it. It is not known who built the fort or for what purpose it was built.
