- There is a rock up in Rinlea and gold is supposed to be hidden under it. There is a fish cut out on the stone and this fish is supposed to be minding the gold. A man tried to lift the rock to get the gold but he was frightened by a white horse. There is a big bush growing near it and it is a very old bush. It is called Tierneys bush. There is a heap of stones in the field also and a man took some of those stones, and he got sick and was bad for a long time, and he had to bring them back again.
About two years ago a man found some old bronze coins in an old path near here. They were near an old wall. People were living in the place years ago, but there are no houses there now.
