    Tusirín na Pléisíur
    This is a little field near Anabla N. School, in the Parish of Kilcummin, Killarney, Kerry. The old people say that in olden times the fairies used come there at night and spend a very merry time dancing and singing - hence the name.
    Some few years ago a man found a tiny shoe there with a number of coins resembling farthings in it.
