  1. The Green Parlour

    Share Share Post
    The Green Parlour is the name of a field in the town land of Clarahill. It is overgrown with ferns and very sandy now. There was a Mass Bush in the Green Parlour long ago. Monks came from the monastery in Reary to pray in the Green Parlour at the Mass Bush. There was an underground tunnel from the monastery in Reary to the Green Parlour. It was the monks retreat and mass was said at the Mass Bush every morning. The green Parlour is enclosed all round by a high ditch.
