“In a field in my father's land there is a large stone”
In a field in my father's land there is a large stone. It is said that if you had a bad headache and to it your head against this stone, it would cure your headache and you would never suffer from headaches again. My father did this once, his headache was cured and he has never suffered from headaches since. The field is called "Cathair Bróda" and I live in Laughtyshaughnessy.
