    hunt in Cromwell's time. These priests were in hiding in a cave close by. Word was given that the soldiers were on their track. They immediately left their hiding place but they were too late.
    The cliffs were surrounded by soldiers. The Priests rushed into the little creek where they were immediately pursued and murdered on the spot. The three rocks were then formed there and to this day people look on the place with awe and reverence.
