Forts
In Bunreavagh there is a fort. I never heard or saw anything strange about it, and I never heard of any one who did. At present there is only a few bushes in the fort. One side of it is raised about 4' above the surrounding land and the North side is about 2' above it.
From this fort Dromod fort can be seen which lies south of it. There is another fort in Rantogue wast of this one but it cannot be seen from here.
