- This means the sally-ridge but there is no traces of these trees in it at present.
It has two fine raths. The one beside Mrs Dunne's house id a good specimen with a cave in the centre. Mrs Dunne's son told me he once entered it with a candle and that is built of sandstone roofed with flags. When you are a short distance there are side entrances containing little chambers but he was afraid to explore it to any considerable distance. Mrs Dunne and family have a great dislike to allowing anyone to interfere with the cave.In Mr. Fagan's field a rath is also to be seen. this was explored some time ago but no trace of urns of bones was found. These also dislike entering into the cave.
