- There is a hill between Bawnmore and Kilpatrick and the Curragh is the name of it. There is a field on the top of the hill with a heap of stones in the middle of it. It is said that gold was found in that heap, and everybody who is passing through that field at night will go astray.
- Long ago there lived a Shea man in Rahalisk and he came over to Bawnmore to a friend. He was crippled. The evening rained, and on his way home he fell into the river Abha Bhuidhe and was carried down along it. When he was able to come out he was all right. There is an old saying that there is a cure where the waters of 3 parishes meet; Macroom, Aghinagh and Clondrohid meet here (near my home). There was an old school at one side of the river here, and an old Church on the other. The sites are called Bothán na Scoile and Páirc an tSéipéil respectively.
