- There is a big stone near Barrow Castle. It is about six tons weight and the print of five fingers are on it. It is said that a giant threw it from Cathair Conn[?] Rígh and it came to the ground there. It is said to be seen yet and the print of the five fingers are in it also.There are three more stones a few yards to the west of that, and any one of them is not of the same material. They are not of the same material as the stones of the locality. It is believed that they were brought there some time.
