- (continued from previous page)There is supposed to be a curse put on by a priest at one time he said that the crows would be flying in and out through its ruins. And the curse came true, the crows were always flying in and out through it.
When the workmen were making a road in Lismacrory down to Heenans they knocked down the ruins for to build the road and there is very little of it remaining now. It is said that the workmen that drew away the stones that their horses used to run away.

- There is a Blessed well in the town land of Sopwell. It is in Brennans field. Priests used to say mass there long ago. Now there is a bush there and a holy water font in under it and any body that has any disease if they go there they will be cured.
