    There's a bracked stone in our field. It is in the second field from our house and it lies to the east.

    There's a bracked stone in our field. It is in the second field from our house and it lies to the east. There is one stone standing and another lying down beside it. There was writing on the standing stone but it is blotted out now. The field is called "Clocha Breacha". It is said there is a crock of gold under the stone. This story was told to me by my father.
