"Bay Lough by Moonlight"

 SOLD

Nestled in the Knockmealdown Mountains is its famous lake, Baylough. Local folklore tells of Petticoat Loose who was banished for all time to Baylough. It is also widely held that the lake is ‘bottomless’ and she was cursed to empty it with a timble. If we were travelling the road over the Vee, my mother would shout, "did you see her?" "Petticoat Loose?"...and we would hide in the back seat!!
