- Treasure is supposed to be hidden in Castletreasure which is in the south of Douglas. It consists of a large sum of gold which is hidden in a golden box. Often people have made a search for it, but alas, a big black bull and a fairy woman hunted them and often they were killed by the bull or by the fairy woman. It is supposed to be hidden by the Danes who stole it out of St Finbarr's College Cork and they hid it fearing that the Irish might take it away from them.
