- There is a moat on the Hill of Slane. There are supposed to be fairies living in it. There is a king buried there named Sláinge and the fairies are supposed to be minding him.
There is a field about a quarter of a mile to the north side of the village of Slane. There are supposed to be fairies there. It is said if you went up to that field at twelve o'clock you would see them. It is said that the cave leads to Newgrange.
There is a hermitage in the demesne. There is another cave there but I heard it said that there are no fairies at that cave.- Collector
