    There is a forth in Derry. It is square and there are trees around it. Diarmud and Granna's house is west of the forth. It is made of two big pillars of stones standing on their edges. The flag that is covering the pillars is four tons weight. Díarmud and Granna were O'Loughlins. Gránna carried the flag in her apron.
