    Share Share Post
    There was a hedge school in Corbally (1 1/2 miles from N.S.)
    The little field is still called the 'Master's Garden'.
    There wa a bush covered with [?] and in the day time, the pupils came and sat in shade of the big tree on a log of wood. The master used to make books himself as no one could afford to buy them. His name was Butler.
