“There is a tree growing on the top of a huge rock about one hundred yards from Caiseal Cross Co Fermanagh.”
There is a tree growing on top of a huge rock about one hundred yards from Caiseal Cross Co Fermanagh. This tree is very small and is growing on this rock which is supposed to be a giant’s grave. It is said that if any man woman or child touches this tree it will bleed. All the rock round it has been quarried but this bit can not be touched.
