- There is a large lios in the townland of Gloun. It is situated one field in from the road between Mr. Desmonds and Mr. O Connell's lands. About two hundred yards away from this lios there is a smaller one in Mr. OConnell's land and it is supposed that there is an underground passage connecting the two of them.
The entrance in the larger lios is in the centre of the top and the entrance in the smaller one is in the western side, but both entrance are nearly closed up.
According to tradition some chief lived in the bigger one and his men lived in the smaller one. In a field of Mr. Desmonds about ten yards away from the big one there are some mounds and it is said that the people who lived in the lios are buried there.- Collector
