- In the townland of Labbamologga there is an old graveyard called the Toumpleen. In a field near the graveyard there are four large stones. It is said some hundred of years ago that those stones were four men. They were turned into stones. There was a chapel there at one time in the graveyard. Some people say that the were stealing out of a chapel; others say they were weaving on a Sunday. The oldest people in the place dont know which is the true history. There is a skull in this graveyard it is buried several times by people but it is found to be in the same place the day after. It is said to be the skull of St Mologga. There is also a kind of a gully. If you had a pain in the back and go under it, it would cure it. Carmel Lee (12 years)
