    “There is a stone in Bahana wood...”

    Share Share Post
    There is a stone in Bahana wood which is the largest was ever seen. It is said that one day, a giant was rolling it from Ballycrinegan mountain to Brandon hill. It struck against an other stone, and it broke in two halves, then the giant did not think it worth his while, rolling it any farther. The two halves may be seen there up to this day.
