  1. A Story

    Share Share Post
    The old people tell us that there lived an old king where i live in Cartron. They also tell us that a great big battle was fought around the place where I live. This king had a great big castle and the remains of it were to be seen not so long ago. The people around Cartron carted the stones from it and they built their old houses from it. The castle was built up on the hill.
