  1. Hidden Treasure

    Share Share Post
    In the downland of Antiduff under a 'lone bush " a crock of gold is supposed to be hidden.
    From time to time two lights have been seen playing round this bush. One light used to rise in the Oak Wood and the other used to rise in Lismogratty . The oak Woo light used to pass through Killyvanney and they used to meet in Antiduff at the lone bush.
    This story ws told me by my father.
