- There is money supposed to be hidden near Antone Bridge. It was hidden by Cromwell who was going out of Ireland and he took money away and at the last load the horses were not able to take it because it was too heavy, so they buried it there. It is one of the soldiers who was killed and he said he would mind it so they left him there. He is seen usually in the night time. some people saw him. No one ever tried to find it. There is light often seen there.
