  1. About three miles to the west of Beaufort are the ruins of Castle Corr. It is now in ruins.
    Some people dreamt of finding gold under the old castle but when they went in search of it they were surrounded by all kinds of supernatural beings, such as bulls without heads so that they had to give up the search.
