    Share Share Post
    'Sé an Struicín an beann is aoirde de'n sreath sliabh atá ar an dtaobh thuaidh de'n bparóiste seo. Téidheann daoine go dtí 'na barr agus ní dhearmhadann siad cuaird a thabhairt ar "Cham an Áir"- Cam atá ar an dtaobh thuaidh de'n mbeann. Cam caol fada 'seadh é go bhfuil trí locha ann- Locha Cham an Áir.

    Tugadh an ainm sin air mar gheall ar an dtroid agus an tÁr a thárluig ann fadó riamh. Is minic a gheibheadh daoine saighde adhmaid caithte ar fuaid na h-áite. Iargcúltacht na h-áite fá ndeara iad bheith ann chomh fada san. Dubhairt Tomás Ó Súilleabháin ó Mináird Thoir liom gur minic a fuair a athair féin 'arrows' ann nuair a bíodh sé ag aodhaireacht i gCam an Áir le linn a óige.
    Seanfhocal mar gheall ar Cath Cham an Áir:- "Cath na bhfionn, Cath na bhfiann, sé an cath is tréine dá'r tháinig riamh."
