In the district of Rossard in County Cork, near to where I live and about a mile from Corravolley school there is an old "cowlac" [?] or ruin.
It is said that long ago, a crock of gold, a crock of silver and a crock of brass were buried underneath this old cowlac. This cowlac was supposed to have been occupied by giants long ago. These ruins are still to be seen.
It is stated that anybody who would take away these crocks would be spirited up in the air.
Some men at one time were determined to find the treasure, so one day they set off to dig for it. When they tried to dig the handles of their spade got broken, and their hands were getting terribly cut.
