   SHANABALLY or Old Town is situated about two miles South of Clopoke, was an ancient place of interment. There is a large Mountain flag-stone, on which is traced the device of a Celtic Cross. The rest of the Stone is left rough. Local tradition assigns the stone to mark the grave of a Bishop. This place is locally known as "Kavanagh's Rath" - Not far to the west is a place known locally as "Geata Bán" At a little distance to the east of this is the Tilery Road - where once a Tilery Factory was in full working order.
