“About twenty years ago a great storm lasted for two or three days and did a lot of damage to places around.”
About twenty years ago a great storm lasted for two or three days and did a lot of damage to places around. The first night of the storm it took the roof off a stable at Callow. There was a stone fastened on to the side of it and the storm brought it a few fields away from the stable. Its owner was James Doyle, who died a few years afterwards.
Another night there was terrible lightning and it knocked a tree, and brought it up from the roots.
The place is half a mile from Foxford.- Collector
