- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)na Seilge or the plain of the Chase. On this mound in ancient times the chiefs would stand and watch the chase going on below them. Right enough it commands a wonderful view of Maċaire Connaċta. –But again I have heard an old man named Martin Gormley who lived near Clashaganny call it 'Carn Broc' This he said meant the bracken hill from the furze (gorse) which used to grow around it.
To the north of these two hills stands a huge stone over twelve feet in height known as Cloċ Fada na gCarn. Tradition says that this stone was brought from Athleague about twelve miles to the South by Dathi's warriors who were going to erect it over his grave at Rathcroghan but that getting tired they dropped it near Carnfree and left it there. There are no scratches or Oġam writing on it. Why did these mighty men drop it and leave it there within a mile of their goal after carrying it ten miles. Did word reach them that King Dathi's remains had been transferred secretly from Rathcroghan to Sheegerah (Tulsk, Co. Roscommon) as tradition says was done and that these men did not know exactly where he was now interred.
