  1. Forts of Anglont

    Share Share Post
    There are two forts in Anglont, West's fort and Foley's fort. Both are one ringed forts and West's has a deep dyke around it. There is a big hole in the middle of it. The hole was a cave one time and it was closed in. If any hunters came hunting a hare would jump out but he could not be killed by any hound. If anyone went into that fort they would be set astray.
