   bounds wall between Mr. O'Donnell's and Mr. Rice's farms. When you go into the first field on Mr. Rice's farm the name of it is the Kiln field, so called because of a Kiln that is in it. This field also contains the ruins of an old church. Outside this field there is an avenue, and at the other side of the avenue is another field. This field is called the Sand-Pit field. The next field to this is called the Jenny Park field. This is so called because it was once a deer park. The next field to this is The Furze Hill. There is a very big field at the East side of Coolmoyne school house which is called the West field. The next field is Meekan's field so called because people by the name of Meekans once owned it.
