- So called fairy lights are seen at Leaba Diarmuid in Scregg, round L.Funshinagh.
They are also seen in Lacken and crossing the Lacken road up to bárr a peic and on to Carramunia. A lighted train is supposed to pass across bárr a peic towards Carromunia.These lights are seen quite often whatever is the explanation.
I once saw them in Lacken. They were like huge globes of fire - like a furze bush on fire. They travelled along Lacken valley on by Corcoran's hill and disappeared leaving a reflection of light in the sky not unlike that of a distant motor car.
I also saw the fair light over Lough Funshinagh. It was like the light of an oncoming motor car and disappeared like a flash over Sidhe - Git hill.
