“There is a little lough above my house called Caillebreig.”
There is a little lough above my house called Caillebreig. It seems a giant boasted that he would wade through all the loughs of Ireland. When he came to this one he was drowned for there is no bottom to it. The lough is called after him.
I have often been to see this lough.
