  1. Fairy Forts

    Share Share Post
    Long years ago many things were seen and heard of especially in forts.
    There is a fort up in Castlebank and it is surrounded with tall trees and stones inside fairies are supposed to be heard dancing around that place.
    People often say that if anything is cut or taken from a fort some bad luck is sure to fall on the person who takes it.
