- It is said that there was a giant in Mt. Bellew one time and another in Skehana. They both had a fight one day and the giant in Mt. Bellew threw a big stone from Mt. Bellew to Skehana and the mark of his five fingers were on the stone.
There was also another giant named Conán Maol and he came to a hag's house one day. He was not dressed as he usually was and he thought that the hag would not know him. But she said she knew him well and he said he would kill her and he killed her.
