- There is a field opposite Bally Seán Mór. It was an orchard one time. The trees were cut down by Thomas Dalton who owned the field because it was too far away from the house. That is how it got its name.
There is also another field at the back of our house called the river field. There is a river flowing through the field & that is how it got its name.
The chapel field is at the back of the chapel belongs to Thomas Walton. Some old people say there is a haunted bush in it & it is called the Chaple field.
