    Long ago there was a Church and graveyard in Kiltown. There was an underground tunnell to the rath in Grange in which the monks used to travel in the Penal times. There is a legend told of a crock of gold hidden there. One day a man from the village of Kiltown went down in the tunnell and asked for the price of a suit of clothes He was told a suit was making for him. Next day he died. It was his coffin was making.
