    There is a field caled the Dun beside our house and in it there is a little hill called the fairies hill. There is a bush in Mr. Logan's bottoms called the dead bush. Its roots are turned up. There is a bend on the back road called Morgan's elbow. A man named Morgan lived there and the bend is in this shape of an elbow. There is a grove of trees in Mr. Kemmingers called Kennys grove. John Daly, Ticknevin has a wooden plough.
