    Battle of Boulders." The battle went on until Finn got so angry that he lifted the huge Cloughmore Stone and flung it into the air. It landed with a crash on Ruiscaine's head crushing him into the mountain. Finn was so tired after lifting this mighty rock that he lay down to rest on the top of Carlingford with his feet in the sea. In the morning when the sun shone on him it turned him into stone leaving him plain to be seen until this day.
