- There is a bog convenient to my house. it is called Nedd Bog. Long ago a giant wished to cross this bog. This, however he could not do ac there was a river running through the bog.
At last he thought of a plan. He took three of the largest stones he could find and he threw them one by one into the river.
Those served as stepping stones and he could thus, cross the river easily Since then the stones are called, 2"Clocha an Fáthaigh Daill Dhuibh."
