- In Brackwansha there is a field called “lisheen”. This means the little fort. Through the field there are little hills. Those hills indicate the places where children used to be buried long ago, without being baptized. There is a small fort in it also, It is said that if you were going through that field at night you would go astray and that you would not get out of it unless you would turn your coat inside out.
