  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    A long time ago there was a treasure hidden but nobody knew who hid it. About a year ago the treasure was found and it was my grandfather who found it while digging in Mr William's pit in Enniskerry. The treasure consisted of two skeletons, and two gold bowls. We don't think there is any connection between the Danes and this treasure.
    There are no lights seen only in the pit of the men working.
    These treasures are to be seen in the Museum in Dublin any day.
