    known has it been found, but a lot of stones are pulled out of the ditches here and there along that road where people were looking for the gold. There is said to be a foal's skin of gold under a hawthorn bush that is growing in the middle of a field belonging to Patrick Sheridan Cornagle. No one ever had the courage to investigate it, as it is said to be unlucky to interfere with a lone bush.
