  1. Told to me by James Gill of Drumaweir.
    There were fairies seen at Ballybrack shore one time. One time a man built a wee house. When he went the next day the wee house was tumbled down. He built it up again and it was tumbled down again. He built it three times and the third time he saw fairies. The he left it and never came back again.
