   priest had finished + he + his flock had escaped.
   Near this place is another rock called "The Hungry Rock"
   There is a legend connected with this rock also. In the Penal Days a priest on horseback was [?] by the soldiers. He got to the Hungry Rock which is a great height above the road which runs just below. The horse jumped from the top of the rock on to the road leaving the track of one of his feet on a rock in the road. This track is still to be seen in the road.
