    Hidden Treasures
    This is no hidden treasure spoke on in this district with the exception of cannon which is hidden in a lake in Derrycrag wood on the outskirts of Woodford. After the battle of Aughim, Sarsfield was falling back on Limerick, but begin followed by the English. He spiked his guns & threw them into the lake. there is an old legend that the echo of the cannon can still be heard in the wood in the dead of night
