  1. CÓR SGEACH:-
    There is a hole down in the ground at the top of Cór Sgeach - a hilly field in the Shankill district - and it is said that the priests of long ago used go down there to say Mass in the penal days. It is now covered in with bushes and trees. It is situated on the right hand side of the road as you go from the village of Paulstown to Shankill. Michael Drea owns the field. It is a square field with a hollow in the top of the hill.
