“There is a fort in Mr King's land...”
(continued from previous page)and there is a flag stone near it and it is said that there is gold under it. Nobody ever like to cut a ditch or cut trees in a fort.

There are many different names for a fort such as Lios or Rath. In Cromwell's time people made them to protect themselves.
