    On the top of a mountain named Mollyash there is a big stone supposed to have been thrown by a giant from Slieve Gullian to this mountain. It is also said that Cu-chulainn crossed this mountain on his way from Dundalk to Armagh. There is a "Cairn" on top of this same mountain and it is said that there is a Queen buried there.
