    yard in Kerryhead where the Corridon families are buried. It is said when any of the Corridon is going to die a light is seen in the graveyard. There is a stone in the shape of a tomb there and a bishop, he is buried under it. There is another stone on top of it and it is said that if it is carried away it will come back again before morning. There is another graveyard at the north side, near the holy well, where babies who are not baptised are buried.
