[Carrignaspaniagh]
"It is said that Cucullane (who is mentioned in page 48) had taken away the wife of a Spaniard, whose husband pursued them to Tigh Cucullane, from which she took a walk with him to the top of this precipice and when there he seized her and flung himself and her into the Lake which is underneath. So the rock is called since as above." [Descr. Rem.]
