  1. Lone Bushes

    Share Share Post
    There is a lone bush growing along the road near Dorians of Glyde Farm. There was a ghost seen at it. There is an odd lone bush through Corbollis. I never heard any old stories told about them. There is a lone bush in Gelbenstown. One night long ago there was a light seen at the lone bush in Gelbenstown but there was no light ever seen since.

  2. Lights

    Share Share Post
    There are about four lights going about Lissrenny. When it comes to Lissrenny it goes round a tree in front of Lissrenny big house and disappears. One of them comes from Louth-Hall to Lissrenny and from Lissrenny to Glyde Farm.
    The people say it is a cave that is going from Louth Hall to Lissrenny and from Lissrenny to Glyde farm. There is a story told about two people coming from shopping and suddenly one of them saw the white lady past them.
