roborated by finding in the ditches or houses in the vicinity of places 
where kistvaens are discovered flags similar to those used in the con- 
struction of the kistvaens. 
Pattts Moat is situated near the south-west of the parish of 
Kilnenor. It is large enough to have beea a royal residence; but as 
it is close to the mearing of Tomathone, which may have been named 
from it, it may be a tuaim. It has been dug into several times for 
treasure ; but, as far as I can learn, nothing has been found in it. 
Waitt Hears.—In the townland of Glenoge, a little north of the 
parish of Kilnenor, and immediately adjoining the mearing of the 
county Wicklow, there were formerly several heaps of quartz blocks. 
From the description given of them they seem to have been laghtas, 
or small carns; but some years ago they were carted away to be 
crushed by one of the gold companies. The country people report 
that the company got no gold out of them, while the ‘‘ good people”’ 
ruined the company for taking the heaps away. The space on which 
the heaps were situated is untilled, and is left for the fairies. 
Cronro—E RanrEen.—South-west of Croaghan-Kinshella, in the 
townland of Clonroe Upper, immediately north-east of Clonroe Bridge, 
there was a semicircular enclosure, 130 feet in diameter, the northern 
half of which was destroyed when the county road was made. About 
forty years ago the occupier of the land wanted to square his field, 
and supposing the semicircle to be part of one of ‘‘ Brownrigg’s old 
manor folds,”’ as they are called from a tenant that once held nearly 
all the manor of Wingfield, he employed a man named John Rogan 
to level it, and in the east side he found a kistvaen, with an urn in it. 
This Rogan buried, and he does not now like to show the exact spot. 
Some kistvaens were said to have been found inside the same circle, but 
Rogan does not believe this. Many ‘‘ Danes’ pipes”’ were found in 
the enclosure. 
BattytHomas.—A bout the same time, or a little after, the same John 
Rogan was quarrying stones for drains at the south-west end of the 
townland of Ballythomas, and about 400 yards north-east of Clonroe 
eross-roads there were two small circular heaps, one of small stones, 
and the other of clay and stones: in the latter he found a kistvaen and 
urn ; the latter he buried, but on account of the place having since been 
planted, he cannot show the exact spot where he buried it. In the 
tillage at Clonroe cross-roads ‘‘ Danes’ pipes” have been found. 
AnnacH Centre.—About two miles south of Clonroe cross-roads, 
Byrne, Lord Powerscourt’s gamekeeper, was levelling an old fort 
grown over with hops, this neighbourhood formerly being famous for 
beer, and in the fosse to the south-east he found a wooden box, about 
seven inches square and four inches high, full of some fine mould partly 
like ashes. The box “fell into bruss’’ when he took it out. He also 
found a great many ‘‘ Danes’ pipes”’ in this raheen. 
BaRRACuRRAGH lies about two miles south-east of Clonroe cross-roads, 
and an urn is said to have been found in it by a man of the name of 
Dunn.
