  2. Róisín Ora's Rocks

    Share Share Post
    Roísín Ora's rocks are situated in the townland of Bandra in the parish of Drumlish. They are enormous rocks of different shapes and makes. They are so-called because a woman lived in a house for a number of years. Her name was Roisin Ora.
    A giant is supposed to have stepped from Corn hill to those rocks - a distance of four miles and thence to Sliab an Iarainn in Leitrim.
    At Roisin's rocks there are two imprints of a foot - presumably a giants foot. They are within a yard of each other and are imprinted in the hard firm rock.
