Description
-
The interior of Fairy Hill in Rushen was supposed to be the palace of the Fairy King. Many a tale was told of the midnight revels of the fairy court of Mona. The fairies were especially fond of the glen at Glentrammon, and were always abroad during the harvest moon. The fairy hills were the ancient tumuli, the burial mounds of an older people, and the connection between the fairy world and the land of the dead ran through everything.
