    It is said there is gold hidden near Mungret. Men went to look for it one night long ago. When the had dug a hole they only found frogs. They put the frogs into their pockets and when they came home the frogs were not in their pockets at all. It is also said that there is gold hidden near Carrig o Gunnell.
