- There us a fairy fort in the townland of Knocknenaugh not distant from my home It is surrounded by a fence of earth There are trees growing on each side of it The manner in which it is built is that there is a circular fence all round it There is a hole in the centre of it Rumour has it that a person once tried to go into it and that he carried a lamp with him As he was going down the lamp suddenly extingushed and he lit it again Suddenly it was put out again With a ludicrous hurry he came up out of it On his homeward journey the crows gathered around him Immediately he died From that day to this any person never interfered with it The fairies are supposed to have built it Terror seizes any one that passes it by night It is customary for light to be seen every night in it.
