Knockaulin (continued)

(continued from previous page)

Knockaulin was the dwelling place of Fionn and the Fianna. The people said that Fionn threw a stone from the hill of Allen to Knockaulin and the marks of his five fingers are on it.
The people dug trenches a round the houses so that wild animals would not take their stock.
