  1. All the fields on my fathers farm are named. One field is called "Crocáin". It got that name because there is a hill in it. Then the people thought that name was suitable.
    "Lean na Dubh" is the name of another field.
    Cnoc Cruaigh is the name of a field. It got that name because there is a hill in it. It also is a hard or stony hill. It is a hard tilled field.
