  1. There is a chomhla bhreac in Tráigh Mhara near Jim Downing's shed. One night long ago when the fishermen were fishing they heard the noise. It was like two hills falling against each other. There are two stones standing there. The place was haunted. One night the fishermen were resting there, eating their lunch. There were barrels outside the shed, one barrel was taken off the ground and it rested in the same place again.
