  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    Between Annsley's shop and Butlers shop Lr. Main St., there is a Lane called the Abbey Lane. It is so called because there was an Abbey at the top of it.
    The ruins are still there and in a cave there were gold candlesticks and candles found because a priest said Mass there long ago.
