    There is a giant buired in our field in the big meadow and there was a big stone at the head of the Grave and it was taken away a long time ago. There is still a big hill where he is buired and a big hole of water around the giant and he has four legs and four hands. there is a triangular shape stone at Briarhill well and there are a few words on it 21st June 1831 N. S. Crilly.
    My mother also told me when she was young she used to go to that well and that there was a Saint on a stone but it is not there now.
