  1. There are six stones in the land of the Little Island which is owned by Patrick Hurley, and they are forming a circle. The field in which these stones are in is called the Mountain, and it is not far from the New Line road, but they were situated there before the road was made. These stones are a cromlech and it is believed that a great warrior was buried underneath them, who was killed while passing near the place.
