- Fairy Forts.
The forts I know are.
1.
The fort in Miss Brigid Mangan's field in Drumcree, Delvin, Co. Westmeath.
2. The fort in Mr. Owen Murray's field in Killacloran.
3. The fort in Mr. John Barry field in Mooretown.
4. The fort in Mrs. Matt Fitzsimon's field in Scurlogstown, Delvin, Co. Westmeath.
Once upon a time there was a man seen standing at a lone bush on the fort in Miss Mangan's field at twelve o'clock at night. There is a big flat stone on the fort. A few years the men around took up the stone and dug under it and they found bones under it and they put them back again and also put the stone back. I don't know any thing about the other forts.Written by Kitty McCormack,
