The Whispering Stones
The Whispering Stones can be found to the North East of Slieve na Callaighe. They are a line of neolithic stones found stretching across the field; they are of an earlier date to the Chambered Tomb of Carn Bane East.
There are several local myths attached to these stones, the most important one being that they are three prophetesses who have been turned to stone. It is said that if you approach them on a moon lit night they will come alive and will answer any three questions that you ask of them.
