    There is a river flowing about a couple of hundreds of yards from my house, it is the aba ó gCearnaig and it flows into the Shannon at Bunratty There are several lakes
    Clonbrick lake Clonlea lake Hassells Pullough lake Doon lake Cullane lake
    The people of the parish are neighbourly kind and hospitalitable The majority of the people are farmers Others are labourers and live in cottages and others still are engaged in carpenty work
    There are not many outstanding things in my neighbourhood In my fathers farm there is the ruins of a court where maor Stacpool lived It seemed to be a very large building because the high walls & chimneys are still to be seen
