[Moneygashel]
"There are two ruins near the centre of the townland which have been built in a circular form and very strong. The walls in some places are at present 8 [and a half] feet high. Near these ruins there are also three large flags erected on their edges and covered with one large freestone flag in the form of a shed with a small enclosure entirely filled with stones. It is believed to have been a burying place in old times and are all supposed to have been built by the druids." [Desc. Rem.];
