- At the foot of Keel Micada on the cliff of Kerryhead there is a little lake and in the of it there are three rocks which it is said sprong up instead of three priests that were killed there.
It was said that it was an enemy attacked them and drove them into it during some war. Some say that it was in the time of Cromwell that his soldiers drowned them and three rocks sprung up like the heads of three men. They are plainly to be seen when the tide is full even to the present day.
