- There was a fairy fort in Cothoir a Turthóin and there was another fairy fort in Lios an Donoug and both ar circular in shape. There was also a fairy fort in Deol on Corroig and two men went down into it and they came to a chamber with two stones crossed at the end. They could not go further in because the candle used go out any time they tried.
There was a fort in Corrin with fir trees growing around it.
There was a cat seen near forts with a nail in his tail and he was called the "feor coit" because he would kill any man he saw.
Any person that interfered with fairy forts always regretted it.
