- There is a field named Ross in Towerhill and the old people believed that the Banshee could be heard crying there especially if any one in the district was near death. One night in particular she was crying and a man who heard her went next morning to the spot. He found there a comb which is believed to have belonged to her. The comb was on a flag beside the stream.
Story
“There is a great house near Towerhill graveyard and in it lived a land agent named Lloyd.”
