- In Knockisland there was another church built by Saint Ciaran. One day the Saint was minding crows. He wanted to go to Mass, so he locked them up in a barn and went to Mass. When he came back from Mass his master a man began to argue with him, and he asked him what did he do with the crows, and the Saint told him that they were in the barn. When the man went to the barn to see the crows they few up in his face and blinded him, because he would not believe that they were in the barn.
