- 198A lone bush 3.3.38In Mrs Commons' field in Syllogue lane I pass the field in many ways every day. There is a lone bush in the centre of the field. At the bottom of the field is a sand pit. In the sand pit is a cave. The old people say that the fairies live in this cave. Every night they came out and danced around the lone bush. The field is situated at the side of the road.
This story was told to me by my father.
