  1. In the parish of Knockanure there is a small townland called Kilmorna. Some years ago Kilmorna was a beautiful estate. But in the 1924 it was divided into farms. One of those farms owned now by William Murphy. There is a field in this farm called "páirc na gaoithe". It got its name because it is a very open field, and the wind blows strongly over it.
