- There are five forths in the neighbourhood of the school. They are on the five highest hills, Rahultan, LeggaKelly, Coole, Drumanny and Derryhoo.
Drumanny forth is in that townland, at the back of Hugh Connolly's house. It is far back from the road and is situated on the top of a hill. On a clear day Killoughter graveyard can be seen.
Coole forth is on a hill between Cloverhill and Redhills. It is a large forth.
Rahulton forth is in the townland of Rahulton. It is supposed to have been built by St. Ultan and thence the name.
