This is a classic tale from my home village of Cwmavon in the Afan Valley in South Wales. It appeared in Elen and the Goblin by Sally Roberts Jones and cast a spell on me at an early age. As a youngster, I spent many happy, if slightly scary, hours looking for the pool. The above is told in my own words. Enjoy.
My eternal thanks to Sally for letting me use her tale.
