- There is a tunnel under the ground in Longford in which things of value have been found.
The tunnel stretches from the old barricks yard to the court another stretches from Bridge street to the court and then out under the Chapel and out to the Bishops Palace which is in St Mells Road. When you go in a piece in one of the tunnels there is a place where they used to hang people long ago. Trunks and sovereigns have been found in this tunnel. The people only found out about this lately.
