    A Story About Karra Gubban
    A few years ago I visited Karra Gubban in Donore in Co. Meath.
    It is a high hill. When you would get to the top of the hill you would go into a cave.
    It was said that this cave was the home of the fairies.
    People say that they saw the fairies dressed in red suits. They were playing Football in the cave.
