There is a song about an old Fenian who was in Drumard once. He was transported to Australia years ago. All the people in Drumard said he was a credit to the townland and Parish.
Then there is a lough which filled in and is now called the blind lough. There is an old story attached to this lough. There is supposed to be a crock of gold hidden under a stone, but there is supposed to be a cat and an eel guarding it and somebody will lose his life to get the gold. So nobody has chanced it yet.
