- This is the only part of Cavan except Magh Sleacht, where there is a tradition of St. Patrick. That a horse could shed a shoe at the point shown in the face of the rock is ridiculous, but the fact that the three holy wells are ascribed to him gives some weight to the local tradition. 200 yards away a stone is pointed out in which St. Patrick is supposed to have left the track of his knees(?). The tracks are there.
