    An Old Story
    When an old monastery was being built near Hanigans the work that was done every day used be gone again every morning. After working for a very long time at the building the masons decided to give it up. Not long after, it was found built completely where Clouncrew graveyard is now and its ruins are still there. The old people said it was being built first on the fairies path.
