- There is a hill in Meanus near Killorglin which has a very peculiar shape like that of a cup turned upside down. It is called Cnocán Árd Dearg, and it is said that a woman carried it in her apron from Currens, and let it fall there. There is a hole in Currens from where it is said the hill was taken.

- Long ago a witch told a man that about a mile or more behind the town of Killorglin near a wood there was a field up from the wood and under a stone there there were two crocks of gold to be found.
