    The Querns were two large stones one on top of the other with a handle for grinding grain. There were two Querns found in a field in Kilgobnet. They were found by my grandfather and two of his brothers under five sods of bog They were supposed to be there since the Deluge. The name of the field they were found in, An Cnocán.
