- Old Graveyards
There is an old grave in Kilmeady parish. About five years ago a man was digging a trench through the field and he found a large stone and on the stone was written "Let no man raised this stone because under it, lay the grandson of the Butler chiefs"
Then a light shone on the stone. And every night since that day a light shines over the rock.
