  1. In the Penal Times

    Share Share Post
    In a place called Glasbolly about a quarter of a mile from where I live, there is a place called Lurgan Rocks. This place is surrounded by bushes of many kinds.
    In the penal days mass was said there. To this day a stone alter is still to be seen. It is made of rough flags, whivh men made to let the priest say mass on. This place has no name locally, but Lurgan Rocks.
    Lurgan Rocks are on the road leading to Rossnowlagh
