  2. Hidden Treasure

    There is supposed to be a chest of gold hidden in Hannons field on Rathwire hill. People say that there is a cave under the ground containing shelves with gold candlesticks, gold pots and other articles of gold. If anyone ever attempted to go in to the dark cave with a light the light would be quenched. A dog is minding the gold. Every night at mid-night the dog goes down the street of Rathwire dragging a chain after him.
