    There is a field called Locháinín because there is a number of streams in it; and every morning long ago a group of swans used to be seen swimming in this loch.
    Another little field is called Léana Beag, and this is said to be the best field in the district for producing mushrooms.
    All the fields mentioned above are int he townland of Reisk.
