    Folklore.
    There are a lot of old stories which i heard concerning lakes and rivers.
    I heard this one I think it is the one. It is said a black man very often appeared in Lough Graney and it was said he followed some men one night he usually appeared standing on a rock and wore a white piece across his body .
    He was very strong looking ,and had very white teeth and he had black curly hair.
