    The two stones met together in mid-air, at about equal distance from each castle and fell to the ground in the position which they occupy at present. The contest was undecided, but the onlookers maintained that the Dunmahon giant was the stronger, because he had to throw more against the hill than the other.
    The field is known since as the "Stone Field".
