    Share Share Post
    There is a field in the farm of Mrs Mortell Barna and it is called the Kiln field and in this Kiln they used to burn lime in the olden days.
    There is a field in the farm of Patrick Drinan Cloghanughera Shandrum Charleville. It is known as the castle field because the ruin of an old castle is still standing there.
    There is a field in Mrs Reas farm, Shinanagh Newtown Charleville. It is said that a witch used to come and sit there. A priest jumped over her and she was left in a heap of ashes. One day a man was ploughing it up. The horses were turned up on their backs.
