- There was a cliff in Cromane where Spanish wine was imported when English Rule forbade its importation. Hence it is called "Faill an Fhíona". The cliff is not to be seen now because the sea has washed it away. But the place where it stood is still called "Faill an Fhíona".
- One bright night a girl was walking along the road to Glenbeigh. She saw a black cat on the road and kicked it. Her leg became stiff and a man stood in the cat's place.
