    Poll Sheáin Uí Ríoghbharidáin
    A man named Sean O'Riordan from Umeraboy was going down one night to a pattern in Duncannon with another man. Sean's father was buried in Nohoval graveyard and they went in to pray. Sean measured himself by lying on the grave to see if he was as long as his father. They then went away. They went for a swim in the Blackwater and Sean got drowned. The place where he was drowned is called Poll Sheáin Uí Riógbhardáin
