- There are five raths in this district. Murphy's Rath, Lacey's Rath, Deevy's Rath and Ring's Rath.
A man called Sam Sim's was lost for three days in Murphy's Rath in the Rock of Foyle. It is supposed to be the fairies that took him. One time a man went to dig Lacey's Rath. As soon as he began to dig his cows began to die.
