    Folklore
    Local Poets
    Long ago a lot of poets lived in this district. A man named Mr O Reilly lived where Eugene O'Reilly has the garage now. Nobody knows any of the poems he wrote. Another poet lived in Castle street where the front gate of Castle Hamilton is. His name was Hugh Masterson. He wrote about the mill lake and the death coach.
