According to Power (1952, 406-07) two trenches which run down the moutainside at Coolnalingady are known as Claidhe na BhFiann - Fence of the Fianna, and Soc agus a Choltair - Sock and its Coulter. They are probably old water courses, but remain unlocated. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press.
