  2. There are many Lioses in this parish, most of them having but one rampart. There are moats around a few and the water is round some of them yet.
    There are two Lioses like that on Mr. Terry's farm in Monadiha. They are almost within a stone throw of each and like all the others are round. There are two other Lioses within a quarter of a mile of them also. There was an old Lios near "Cloc na gCeann" but it has been destroyed and only a ring which can be barely seen remains.
