- There is a fort in Coolies. The fort is in the middle of a leavel field. It is a square hole and if you threw in a stone you would hear the stone hopping from step to step. I was told that fairies are playing football there every night and if you went into the field when they were playing they would run down the hole. There is a path under the ground. The path is crossing under a passage and after a while the passage broke out at Jimmie O Donoghue Coolies. The path is about two miles under the ground.Owen Spillane Loughquittane
