  1. Stories of Giants and Warriors

    Share Share Post
    Long years ago there used to live in this Country, big men called Giants. They were very powerful and strong. There is a story told about a very large stone that is on top of a mountain at Warrenpoint. A giant was supposed to have stood in O'meath and thrown the stone over to Cloughmore Mountain.
