- Long ago the Shannon was so shallow that there was a path across it to a wood names "Umna". The town before this time was named Port but since then it is called "Port-umna".There was an old monastery in Lorrha where the Friars used to live and it is now called "the Friars Loch".There is a river beside the banks of the Shannon named "Rodgers Lane". Two brothers named Rodgers were drowned there and that is how it got that name.Written by - Val Williams, Abbey St., Portumna
