“There is fort in the townland of Keenagh.”
There is a fort in the townland of Keenagh. There is no tunnel in the fort. It is circilur in shape. There is a fence round it, and there are trees growing on it. There are fairies living in it, because singing and music have been heard in it. Nobody likes to interfere with it by digging or ploughing. One time a man dug some of this fort and when he went home he began turning up blood. Shortly afterwards he died of the effects of it.
