  1. Long ago there was a man whose name was Kingston living in Kilgariff near Clonakilty. He had a fort and he knocked the fence around it and the same year all his cattle died.

  2. There is another fort in Dan o Mahony's land Carhuvouler. Their ancestors set potatoes in it and later on some of them went to America and they were drowned while going. It is a small round enclosure and there is no fence, but a hedge of willows around it. There is a hollow ring around outside the trees.
