Location

Lying between Tonitygorman and Agharoosky which are cut off from the road by them, is the town land of Tireevil.

Fort

There is a small forth here close to Arnott’s Grove. Generally forths or raths appear to be in pairs e.g. Lisrace & Drumady, Golan & Lammy, Knox & Tonitygorman but this one appears isolated. Forths have survived because of a belief that bad-luck would follow any interference with a one. Apart from the forth at Golan none of the others is considered locally to be of any special merit.
