  1. Fairy Forts

    Share Share Post
    One night Mick Keogh Lissamota Ballingarry was on the road near a fort in the land of a local farmer named Micks. A light rose out of the fort. The light went to across and landed on a stone near the cross. The light stayed for a few minutes. The light stayed over the fort for about a minute. The light changed into small lights. John Micks who was living near saw the light also.
