    A Local Story
    There is a parish near Kilruane it is called Ardcroney. There is a rock in that parish.
    It is said that the devil was driving a big flock of sheep through the Devil's Bit. The sheep could not go so he took a rock out of the mountain and threw it to Ardcroney. The rock is there yet.
