  1. There is a field in the townland of Kildare called Pairce Na Cloice. It got its name from a large stone which is in the field. This is how the stone got to be there. Long ago Finn camped there, and he had a plot of cabbage planted in the field. He was coming back from hunting one day when he say Conal Maol's goat eating the cabbage. He took up a stone and threw it at the goat, and the stone is still there to be seen.
