    ruin stands on another hill about 50 yards from the other. The ruins are situated quarter of a mile from Moylough chapel.
    For signs of the weather we in this district, look in the direction of these ruins, for behind them, the sun sets and when the clouds gather black behind them, we know the rain is coming. When we see a bright streak coming along the horizon at the back of them, we are glad for we know the weather is going to clear.
