- Once upon a time there was a new house built in the "Dark Lawn" in the townland of "Webbsboro". The tradesmen that built it hid money under every corner of the house. Several attempts were made to knock the house in order to get the money. During that time the person that was living in this house used always hear an awful heavy noise coming down the stairs of the house and he could never see the cause of it. Other nights a coach used drive up to the door of the house but it was never seen.
