- In the Townland of Coradoey, situated in the district of Killygordon, a large number of beautiful white stones are to be found lying on the side of a hill. These stones are formed into a circle and according to Mr James McLoughlin, Cornabrouge, Killygorden, they mark the place where Mass used to be celebrated during the time when the Penal Laws were enforced. No trace of an Alter or Alter-Stone is to found near the spot.
