Thomas Browne who lived in Ballyallinan dreamt three times in succession of a treasure which was supposed to be buried under a large briar in Barry's fort. One night at twelve o clock he went to look for it. While looking for it he came to a large flat stone. When he was raising the stone a bull came from behind him to attack him and after having a great struggle with the bull he had to go away.
