    On Mullyash Mountain there is a large stone about 4 ft by 12. On this large stone there is the foot print of a giant.
    The mark of the foot is still to be seen. Some people say that there is a giant buried near spot. The town land of Lurganearly gets its name from this mark - Lorg an Iarla the foot print of the Earl.
