  1. In one of our fields there is a remains of a school which people made during the penal laws. It is in a hollow place. There is a low ditch and little trees planted on it all around.
    There is one big tree in the middle where the slate used to be hung. There are humps inside in it where the children used to sit down and a big one where the teacher sat. The teacher would get money every day from the children.
