Wormy Hillock

Henge

Folklore

"In [Finglenny] there is a 'mound' known as the Wormie Hillock, which has long been regarded as one of the interesting sights of the place. Legend tells us it is the grave-mound of a dragon, which at one time infested the neighbourhood, and was slain at this spot by some unknown St. George."

From 'Place Names in Strathbogie, with notes historical, antiquarian and descriptive', by James MacDonald (1891).
