There is a fairy fort in Morley's field in Cornanoff. It is now left to the rabbits to make their burrows there. The way it was made was, they carried clay with baskets out of our lake. The fort is now ploughed out except the bottom of it. There is a well beside it.
Recorded by Sara Hall as part of the1930s Schools Collection of the National Folklore Collection, which is now being digitised at duchas.ie.
