  1. Another story and a quite recent one is told of the Treasure in Kyle near Roscoe which is supposed to be protected by lights when the Archeological was busy there last harvest, a boy was coming home one evening and he heard terrible moaning. He called others to hear and as they stood round they saw a very bright light rise from the ground and increase in size as it went up until at a certain height it burst and disappeared. So the old people say these light's have been seen there from time to time.
