There is a fort in Ballyourane. There were lights seen in it often. There was a man setting oats in a field near it and he saw a hen coming out of the fort and she was picking the oats. The man was very frightened and he went home. There was a fort in Bishopland long ago. It is dug out now. It was surrounded by a big stone fence. There was a couple of rooms in it.
