    We have several fields at home the name of which are:
    Moinín Rhue, another is called the well field another is the river field. The others are Carnlough and Ruane's fields.
    There is a stream running through our land into the big river. There are no hollows or hills in our land.
    There are rocks and good for fences in the land. They got those names when the land was divided. There is a hollow in our farm at home and it is called the Clais because water lodges in it.
