A note in Seán Mac Giollarnath's 'Annála Beaga an Iorras Aitheanta' about buried treasure left there by a 'ceithearnach' (possibly a peasant) from Dumhaigh Ithir. A note about the ruins of the Mission School and Parsonage, which was also the site of a church in the past, but no trace of the church remains. A few graves are to be found, most notably that of Archibald Thomas Hamilton (see Leitir Seanaidh). Various local sources informed the information gathered on this placename, as indicated by the word 'local' on many cards.
