    There is a large stone in one of Mr Clarke's fields in the townland of Carricknamart and in the Parish of Raymochy. This stone is supposed to be on a giant's grave.
    The field contains about one acre of land, and this stone was rolled to the centre of the field, and it is still there in memory of the old people.
    This field is called The Mullan. It is surrounded by deep drains.
    The stone is about thirty yards long and about twenty yards wide and about three yards in depth.
