Description: Dragon's Grave, or "Wormy Hillock", 3 km from Milton of Lesmore, Aberdeenshire, Great Britain. The true story:- the people wanted to bury the dead dragon but it was such a big hole to dig that the dragon was fast becoming a health-hazard, so when the hole was only half-dug, they just rolled the rotting dragon in, and used the earth that they'd already dug out, to cover it over. So the mound is still there, hundreds of years later.
