    The Haunted Gate
    At Cahill's gate Tobernea, about a half a mile from the town of Kilmallock, a man is seen on a horse.
    There is a place under a bush as you enter in the passage and they call it "Poll Dragoon".
    As a dragoon soldier was coming across the field, his horse stumbled and he fell into the deep part, and that is how it was Christened "Poll Dragoon".
