    There are ten gollauns in this district. There is a gollaun ni Carrig Uí Ulla Rúdh. It is about six feet high and there is writing on it called ogam writing which is a very ancient form of writing, There is another gollaun in Duggan's Réidh in Mushera. A capped pillar stands in Mr Twomey's Rúdh. A capped pillar is a large stone standing on the ground and another stone on top of it. There are three gollauns in Mushera.
