- In Maghermore hill there is a large stone. Fionn McCool was supposed to have thrown this stone from Bulba hill to this place with his left hand. It is said he was looking for some place and he passed a large crowd of men trying to move this stone out of their way. Fionn saw them and he was mounted on his horse. He bent down from his horse and lifted the heavy stone with his left hand that the crowd of men couldnt lift.He left the tracks of his five fingers behind him and they are plain to be seen on the rock.(continues on next page)
