  1. [Carraic an Aifrinn is a Mass Rock in Goladoo, Townawilly. Near hand there is a rocky field that would remind one of an old burial ground.
    Some of the stones occupy strange positions in regard to one another, and it would seem strange that so many of them should be placed naturally. There is no local tradition.
