    "... From researching, I discovered Samson's Stone got its name from a story about Samson who pulled down a temple in Gaza. He did so with such force that a piece of the stone from the temple flew over the Mediterranean Sea and descended on a small hill outside Downpatrick. ..."

    William Alfred Green (1870–1958)

    The 1830s 6" at geohive markes Down Fort nearby, but not Samson's Stone. The PRONI historical mapper has both from the 2nd edition on (1846-62) spelled Sampson's Stone.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The nearby reservoir (from the 3rd edition of 1900 on) seems to be named Sampson's Stone Service Reservoir.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Nearby shots in the catalogue do not seem helpful with dating.
