    On the Ardrohan road, which is about a quarter of a mile from Kinvara, there is a monument. It was erected in memory of two brothers who were killed during the Black-and tan time. The monument is situated about three and a half miles on the Ardrohan road from Kinvara.
    During the Summer nights the country people have dances at the cross roads. They have the most people on a Sunday evening so on that evening the people make tea and drink it sitting on the side of the road
