- There are four forts in the village of Ballywinagher about a mile and a half from the town of Kiltimagh. There was an entry to one of them a few years ago but it was closed up because the cattle used to go into it. It was on the north side of the fort that the entry ws. THer is a big stone in the middle of the fort with a track of a woman's hands and knees on it. There is a smaller fort. beside it in which,unbaptized children used to be buried in once. It is paved with stones. There are bushes overhanging it. There is another for about a hundred yards from this fort and if anyone cuts a bush something will die in them.
