    “In the townland of Derryfadda...”

    Share Share Post
    In the townland of Derryfadda on the farm of Stephen Brennan there is an old ruin called the monastery. A peculiar stone in the shape of a trunk or box with a key-hole in it lies here. One moonlight night Martin Halpin (pronounced Haypnee) was out hunting rabbits and when in sight of the ruins three monks in their robes appeared and walked around the ruins.
