Geocache Description:


The cache can be found near to the old chapel and graveyard in Ballyaughian townland, on the road to Bryansburn.

This was the parish church in the 16th century, but now only the east gable remains as the stone was used to build the Presbyterian Church in Hilltown. It was sometimes called the Eight Mile Church. Ther is a legend about the building of the church. It says that every evening an ox would push over the construction carried out that day. The priest drove the ox off with a stick then stuck the stick in the ground defying the ox to come back. He never did and the church was finally completed.

The cache can be found on the St. Patrick's Trail at the start of Clonduff Road just outside Hilltown with parking on the grass verge just a short distance away. The cache is a micro and you will need to have a pencil to sign the log and long arms to get it.
