    are two ornamented stones on the pillars of the gateway. There is a round tower in my district. It was built by the men who built Cloyne Church. No one know the right year when it was built, some say it was built eleven hundred years ago and others say it was built fourteen hundred years ago. An old story about it is, it was supposed to be built in one night by a "devil"
