  1. A Story
    One night a man was drawing a load of timber to Dundrum. When he was going over the "Black Bridge" the horse stood and would not go any farther.
    The man went home and left the horse there. When he was going in his own gate he found he had the horse caught by the winkers. It is said that the woman who swore on Father Sheehy is seen standing at that Bridge.
