  1. Fairy Forts
    There are two "fairy forts" in my district. They are called forts, one in Ardragh and the other in Gortfree. They are within view of each other. They are circular i shape and there is a fence of trees around them. They are supposed to be built by the Danes. There were lights seen in one of them.
