- On the road between Churchtown and Newtoncunningham in the townland of Lusticle parish of Tuaghboyne Barony of North Raphoe there is a farm of land that belongs to a Mr Rankin. Just behind the farmhouse there is a large field called the giants bed. At the top right hand corner of this field facing the north there is a circle almost flat and about 15 feet in diameter. This is supposed to be where the giant is buried. At the foot of the field there is a large hollow called the "Giant's bed" on the neighbouring hill of Dooish there is a cairn of stones and this is supposed to have been erected in memory of this giant but none of the old people ever heard his name or who he was.
