    Ní i bhfad ó mo teach-sa atá cnoc ar a tugtar "Cnoch na Croiche". Níl fhios ag na daoinibh í gceart cé'n fáth a tugtar an t-ainm sin air. Dubhairt na sean-daoine go raibh croch ann fadó agus gur chuireadh a lán daoine chun bháis annsin. Tá an áit seo suidhte ar cnoch árd agus tá crainnte ag fás anois thart timcheall na h-áite in a raibh an croch.
    Bhí an chroch sin le feiceál suas go 50 bliadhain ó shoin. Bhí tighearna talmhan in a chomhnuidhe i n-aice na h-áite agus an duine a chuir fearg air, nó nach raibh i n-ann a chios a thabhairt dó chrochadh é ar bharr Cnuic na Croiche.
