- Hidden Treasure
In Burnchurch there is a castle and tower. Half way between them gold is buried.
One day three men dug for it. After some time they reached the gold.When they had half of it got they saw a horse running away. They ran to stop the horse.
When they came back they could not find where the rest of the gold was.
The three men were dead in a weeks time. One of them died suddenly. Another of them was drowned in a small stream of water. The other man was killed with a hay rake. Neither of them lived to enjoy the money.
