- A treasure consisting of sacred vessels made of gold (chalices etc.) is supposed to be buried near the ruins of Cottage -(A farm lately divided). It is said the Danes ravaged this district after plundering the Roscommon Abbey. An old bishop who lived near the Suck hid the treasure which has never yet been located.
