- Near Ashford there is a spot called Poll na Righthe. Beside it there is a tree growing. There is ivy growing up along the tree. It is said that if you touch it, a goat would appear. One day a man came to the place to gather faggots. When he put them into the fire sparks flew around the house in such a fashion that the household had to leave the house. On another occasion a carpenter cut down the tree to make a cart wheel. When the wheel was put under the cart is fee asunder.
