  1. I asked a man named William Lynch did he know the name of any rock or fold and how it got its name. He said he knew the name of a rock called the Wild Cat's Rock William Lynch is 73 years of age and he said when he was herding he used to play wild cats around this Rock with other children This rock is in the hill called Taranvaram. This hill is near the Glen.
