    “In the village of Ballyskea there is a field...”

    Share Share Post
    In the village of Ballyskea there is a field and the people call it Honour Glynn acre because long ago there was a poor woman living in this field and she had a little house in the corner of this field and that is all the land she had. Another field is call the meadow because long ago the people used to have hay in this field every year.
