    through this entrance place you would never come out again. Whether it is a lie or thruth I don't know because I never heard of anyone entering it. This rath is also supposed to be the home of fairies. Because one day when Mr Murphy went out to cut a cart of rushes for the top of his rick. He loaded his car alright and went to go home throught the rath and fell off the car and broke his neck.
