  2. There are three graveyards in this parish with the ruins of a chapel in each. These chapels must have been the same size in every way and must have been built according to a plan or be built by the same person. Though very old some portions of the walls are still intact and quite upright.

    "Ballinookera" got its name because of the fine soil in some parts of it. The soil is black. There was a water-mill here long ago. There was another water-mill in Ballytibbet and the mill stream can still be seen.
