    The smallest moat of all is next. This is almost circular, on the top there are three holes, in which there are some black stones.
    The last moat is about seventeen feet high and about fifteen feet wide. There is a big hole in this moat.
    In the east side of the field are the ruins of an old house about five feet high with slates on the top. The Major Kelly lived here about a hundred years ago.
