  1. There is a field in Artigallivan known as Cnocán Na Rince. Long ago there was a man passing there very late at night when he heard lovely music and dance. He stood to listen to the music Looking in the direction he saw a large crowd of what he thought were small fairies dancing on of a little hill in the field. When he went home he told the story and ever since it is called Cnocán Na
