248.03 | Uamh Briste (The Broken Cave) A cave once stood here which was taken advantage of by a Carpenter who created in front of it his work shop. One day while at work the cave fell burying two of the men under the ruins. The third was absent in pursuit of his dog who decamped with his dinner, and fortunately escaped the destruction through the sagacity of his dog. The tradition is generally known and believed in the district. |
