Sarah Costley and Charles Kightly wrote in "A Celtic Book of Days" about Saint Gobnat who lived in Ballyvourney. They based their story on Sister Mary Donatus' book "Beasts and Birds in the Lives of the Early Irish Saints". Saint Gobnat was given a box of bees by Saint Modmnoc who brought them to Ireland from Wales. She had the box in her hands when a band of robbers approached.
