Between Ross Bay and the Galley Head is a strand called Cleena's strand, off which, standing in the water at a short distance from the beach is the rock known as Carrig-Cleena, around which the waters assume a dark hue.

One old story declares that she was chained to this rock, another says she was a foreigner who was drowned there.

A wail of sorrow came".
