- Long ago Finn Mc Cuail stood in a place called Glenaleime a glen above Kilflynn. He jumped down on a rock and with his weight he left the print of his heels on the rock. On Saint Stehen's day he stood on Tullig road, and looked around him. He saw a wren in a furze bush on the side of Ballyrehan road which is about a distance of two mile. He threw a half ton stone at the wren. It is said that the wren is buried under the big stone. It would take about five men to rise it.
